According to this bible verse, those involved with the Joy of Giving should be quite blessed indeed! Over 35 times Nicki Davis has been blessed by giving. She started in 1988 with gifts for just one family. That turned into two or three families the following year and more the year after. It was then suggested to her that organizations could donate if she had a 501c 3, so she went to Fred Kramer, a local attorney, who helped her form a charitable organization, the Joy of Giving.
This year, the Joy of Giving provided gifts for the 827 children of 403 families! Davis said she was blessed with the help of Allyson Richards and Alisha Pacheco who work the Joy of Giving tirelessly every year. They are also thankful for the crew of Walmart on Juliet Blvd. and the Island Country Club Charitable Foundation (ICCCF). “We couldn’t make all these families happy without everyone’s support,” said Davis. "Special thanks go to Marco Island Noontime Rotary and also the Elizabeth K. Galeana Foundation."
