The magic of the holiday season truly came alive at this year's Gift of Christmas celebration, where our community came together to create unforgettable memories for local families. As we reflect on this beautiful day, we're reminded of the words that inspire our mission: "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in." (Matthew 25:35-37)  A Day of Joy and Connection Families gathered at the Royal Canadian Legion #82 for a day filled with holiday cheer, enjoying a delicious turkey lunch, creating festive crafts, and sharing precious moments with Santa. The joy in children's eyes as they received their special toys from Spin Master Toys and took family photos with Santa was truly priceless. The beautiful holiday music performed by Carla Gonzalez and Greg Noguera added an extra touch of musical magic to the celebration. Our Outstanding Sponsors

The resilience shown by these families inspires us all. Through the Gift of Christmas, we're building an inclusive community where everyone can share in the bounties our city has to offer, and where children learn the precious value of giving and sharing.
