Back to School Project

Recognizing that the cost of school supplies is prohibitive for some families, this annual project ensures that students who attend Walkersville Schools and Walkersville Feeder Schools start the school year off right with the necessary school supplies.

The project relies on the generosity of the local community (churches, organizations, businesses, and residents) to donate the needed supplies. Glade Valley Community Services provides funding for the purchase of supplies, where needed, if community donations fall short.

Holiday Toy Shoppe

The Holiday Toy Shoppe is an annual program sponsored by Glade Valley Community Services (GVCS). The Toy Shoppe is a community wide effort to assist families living in the Walkersville, Woodsboro, and surrounding Glade Valley area needing assistance in providing a better Christmas for their children than might otherwise be possible.

The program depends to a great degree on the generosity of local churches, organizations, business and residents to provide the requested items. GVCS provides funding for the purchase of items, where needed, should community donations prove insufficient.

Online Applications for Holiday Toy Shoppe assistance are ALWAYS taken in October. For more information, see http://gladevalley.org/services/the-holiday-toy-shoppe/.

The 2020 Holiday Toy Shop distribution will be held Wednesday, December 9th, at the Walkersville Town Hall,
