COMMUNITY CHRISTMAS HAMPER CAMPAIGN: Community Christmas Hamper Campaign delivers the goods!

COMMUNITY CHRISTMAS HAMPER CAMPAIGN: Community Christmas Hamper Campaign delivers the goods!

“Santa” (Bert Pelletier) and his “elves” – loading crew supervisor Derek White (left), Community Christmas Hamper Campaign volunteer co-ordinator Elise Holloway (right, wearing Santa hat) and members of the loading crew and delivery volunteers (back row) Françis Breau, Jewel Fink and Steve Byrnes – help load boxed sets of Christmas Hampers into volunteers’ “sleighs” at Santa’s workshop (Eastern Québec Learning Centre) on Delivery Day, Dec. 21. We extend a huge thank you to everyone who helped us to deliver goodness to some 280 households this year. A special thank you message to donors will appear in a February 2025 edition of the QCT. Donations can still be made at qchampers.ca to help the campaign reach its $50,000 fundraising goal. Donations can also be mailed to Community Christmas Hamper Campaign, c/o Jeffery Hale Community Partners, 2000-1270 Chemin Sainte-Foy, Québec, QC G1S 2M4. (Photo by Shirley Nadeau)
