The Vicksburg Fire Department is working to help the United Way of West Central Mississippi make Christmas merry for as many local families as possible, and this week, students at Warren Central Junior High School (WCJHS) got in on the action.

“Mr. Nicholas Dotson, the dedicated principal of WCJHS, has inspired his students to participate in a heartwarming initiative,” Stamps said. “He encouraged them to gather and donate gifts for the Vicksburg Fire Department, which will distribute these thoughtful donations to children throughout the community. This generous act not only brightens the holiday season for local kids but also fosters a sense of compassion and teamwork among the students.”

Stamps said the gifts will be distributed to United Way as they are needed.
