Thanks for the Christmas magic

It is wonderful to know people can still count on one another to share their abundance and good wishes.

Everyone at the Surrey Christmas Bureau wishes to thank our city’s generous residents and businesses who freely donated funds and toys and volunteered their time and services.

It is wonderful to know people can still count on one another to share their abundance and good wishes.

The City of Surrey contributed our excellent toy depot site, which was very appreciated.

Nearly 2,000 local families were either directly assisted or referred to other services. This translates into over 4,500 children whose Christmas morning was made happier by our community’s generosity.

As we pack up and organize for 2012, we gratefully reflect on the special donors and volunteers who made Christmas magic happen in our city.
