The Give BACK

December is a month of happiness and a time full of laughter shared over great food with family and friends; one thing we must remember is that not everyone has this opportunity.  

One of the most exciting days of this month is December 25th. Christmas time for some families can be a mix of emotions, anger, embarassment and anxiety.  There are some families who have a difficult time providing dinner and presents for their children on Christmas day.  The time, food, money and opportunity we have is sometimes taken for granted (myself included), this is a small opportuntiy for collective impact and for everyone to play a part in making a family smile this Christmas.

By donating to this campaign you will directly help families and provide a fulfilling, magical and special Christmas to their children.  You will directly help to put a full Christmas dinner on the table for someone in need and a little extra spending money in their pocket.

I have personally committed $200 to this campaign (you will not see in listed amount), this $200 will go directly to purchasing 2 turkerys for the specified communities below($25 per turkey). The remaining money raised will go to purchasing all of the fixings for a turkey dinner and $50 disposible visa.

The families in the communites of Mulgrave Park, Uniacke Square, The Pubs (Bayers westwood) and Dartmouth North will be involved in this years "The Give BACK".  I will speak with leaders and organizations in each community to identify two families in each communtiy to receive the items listed below. 

Here is the breakdown PER family

Turkey ($25)
5lb potatoes
Carrots
Large Can corn
Can cranberry sauce ($50 for all fixings)
Gravy mix (4)
Broccoli
1 frozen pie
Dinner rolls
Pop & Juice
Visa card ($50)

$125 per family X 2 ($250) families per community (4) = $1,000

With assistance from those working in the specified communites on December 21, 22, 23 the turkey, fixings and Visa will be delivered to the vibrant and amazing families.

I will post ALL receipts to be completely transparent, any left over money will be donated or put on a gift card! :)

Thank you all for sharing, posting, and donating to make Christmas just a little bit more special for a family in Halifax.
