Collecting Self Care Products to Fill 1500 Xmas Stockings

Volunteers elves (huge thank you to Sharon, Stephanie, Jenny, Simone, Darnelle, Gillian, Lisa, Wendy, Angela, Mallora, York House School students, Krista, Jana, Gary, Trilby, Dominique, Tracy and more) made sure the stockings were sewn and dropped off in time for our decorating elves to decorate (thank you to Stephanie & her church, Mallora, Tamara,Sandy, Monica,Blair, Carson Graham Students, York House Students, Alexandra Elementary School Students, Gary’s students, and many many more).
