GCEC Collects Donations

For many years, Gulf Coast Electric Cooperative employees and trustees have incorporated a drive to benefit the Children’s Home Society into their annual Christmas party. This year was no exception. Employees and trustees graciously provided toys, art supplies and other items to benefit local children in need. A special part of the donation was pillows in pillowcases that were quilted by Lorie Black, wife of GCEC president Jimmy Black, and her friends. Each quilted pillowcase had a handle, as well as a pocket for an activity or coloring book and a smaller pocket for crayons, colored pencils or pens.
