Nothing feels more like summer to us than decorating Adam’s house full of Christmas decorations for a holiday campaign photo shoot, but here we are and now past the halfway mark until Dec 25. Sure it’s less than 6 months away, but we have so many opportunities during summer that you can still enjoy and support before Hamper Week, including our summer fundraiser, A Taste of Christmas, on July 20. So join us on July 20 and let’s support (and celebrate) together our programs, our people, and our promise. Tickets can be purchased at christmasbureau.ca/events 📸 Special thank you to Curtis Comeau for always bringing out our best smiles and expressions.

Thank you to everyone that attended our AGM and contributed to the success of another holiday campaign. From our dedicated team, board, volunteers, community partners, and donors, it took (takes) an entire community to help a community - and we just couldn’t do it without you. As we move forward to 2024, we want to thank you for your ongoing support and dedication 365 days of the year and for always believing that one act of kindness can impact a lifetime. Thank you. Merci. Hay Hay. Dyakuyu. Dhanyavaad. Salamat.
