In partnership with Vermont Galaxy and Mindful Medicine, the joyous occasion brought smiles and holiday cheer to 375 children and their families.

The event, held at 509 E Rosecrans Avenue, was made possible through the generous support of sponsors, including Rising Communities, Raising Canes, Shelter Partnership, Holly Mitchell’s Office, FedEx, Chick-fil-A, Freedom House, CalAIM, United Way, KJLH Free Radio. These partnerships exemplified the spirit of community collaboration and the importance of uplifting local families during the holiday season.
