Macaroni Kid is "aiming" to surprise 150 families this winter, with the ultimate snowball fight. Well, not a literal snowball fight... it's more that we will be spreading cheer by delivering at least 150 Snowball gift bags in December. How? We will gather all the swag to fill the bags, arrange for delivery and document the adventure on social media! We will also, provide info for the recipients to keep the balls rolling!
