 HOLIDAY BLESSINGS 2023

3RD ANNUAL CHRISTMAS JACKET AND TOY DRIVE

DECEMBER 20th

GOOD SHEPHERD CENTER FOR HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN

New jackets and 1 specific Wishlist item were delivered to the 50+ children living at the shelter. A special visit from Santa and photo booth opportunity provided. A catered brunch from Marie Callender’s was served for the families in attendance. 

 

Christmas Magic!! Together with our community partners UNAC/UHCP we were able to help create special memories to last a lifetime. So many lives were touched…from the crying mom because we answered her child’s prayers, to the joy of seeing the kids opening the gifts and being so excited. The magic of a squishmallow…and the jolly St. Nick. We are so blessed and thankful for everyone donated and volunteered to help make this day special!
