Did you know that 25,000 homeless kids struggle to survive in Illinois alone? Gavel International, through our Gavel Gives program sponsored Project Elf at Fill a Heart 4 Kids to provide 100 homeless children with a brighter future. In addition to the donation of $2,500, the employees of Gavel International spent a day volunteering by filling bags for homeless children. Each bag included warm socks, snacks, gift cards for fast food, a thermos and hot cocoa packets, Chapstick, and much more!
