You have never really lived until you have done something for someone that can never repay you. ~ John Bunyan It’s Christmas morning and all I think about is ...the pure joy and smiles on so many faces this morning as they are handed a beautiful gift so obviously full of kindness, generosity and love. We are two ordinary people who took action and achieved an absolutely extraordinary feat with the help of all of our Santas. Our lofty goal of reaching 100 seniors-in-need exploded because of the phenomenal response from incredible people in our community. We’re so happy to tell you that 603 gifts have been delivered in the last few days!! A reminder to many that they are not alone and are being thought about today. Our hearts have grown three times their normal size from your support, your kind words, and the care you took in choosing, shopping, wrapping and dropping off the perfect gifts for your seniors. We’ve met and connected with many of you and have enjoyed every minute of it. We simply can’t wait until next year!! So thankful to our sponsor tree locations: Century 21 Millennium, Healthy Smile Dental Clinic, Angelic Treasures Daycare, and the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 609. We would have been in a pickle without you!! Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas full of laughter and love, and a very Happy 2018!! Kathy Switzer and Nicole Monteith xo
