As 2020 comes to a close we can all breathe a sigh of relief that it is finally over.
With COVID-19 shutting down everything. With new protocols and ways to work and learn, we have all learned a lot this year about how isolation can take a toll.
Yet through all the hardship there has been great kindness. Here on the Sushine Coast the community raised over $30,000 for the Elves Club, which gives out donations to different organization on the Coast in need of help.
The Elphinstone High School Leadership class did a food drive that brought in over 4,500 items and $1,390 in cash. This is double the food that is normally donated and 9 times the amount of money usually donated. With it, over 178 individuals and families in Gibsons were serviced and some also went to the Sechelt and Pender Harbour Food Banks.
The Sunshine Coast Secret Santa helped 46 families in need. This year has been tough, but it shows that when we all pull together we can do great things.
With vaccines on the horizon, hopefully 2021 will be a year of renewal. Renewal of friendships and communities.
Have a Wonderful Christmas and Holiday Season!
Happy New Year!
And May 2021 Bring You All Health and Happiness!
