The CCHA Holiday Smiles program had another successful season thanks to the generosity and kindness of Cortes Islanders. 30 children and youth received gifts through the program in 2021. Donations surpassed our goals this year, at $4,200, and we’ll be able to start off the season in 2022 on much sounder footing.
Huge gratitude to the many donors who helped to make the season a little more merry and to the parents who allowed the community to love your children in this way.
Best wishes for 2022 everyone!
Help make this holiday season merry and bright for Cortes kids from low-income families!
Here are two ways to help make the holidays magical:
1. Make a tax deductible donation to the CCHA Holiday Smiles Fund. Donations can be made online, by cheque, or by e-transfer. 100% of your financial donation goes toward holidays gifts for children. Tax receipt for donations $20+. See details below.
2. Nominate a family (your family, your friend, your neighbour). Nominations are made anonymously through an online form. Confidentiality and anonymity are carefully guarded. Parents choose how to present the gifts to their children.
Just fill out the nomination form!
