The day will kick off with a fundraiser supporting our mission, followed by an evening where we welcome families and children from partner shelters and schools to a festive holiday dinner. Together, we’ll provide a warm, fun-filled celebration that these families will treasure.

Your time and energy can truly make a difference for our community this holiday season!

We look forward to serving alongside you this holiday season!
