CHRISTMAS FOR THE KIDS
Join us this holiday season as we bring the cheer to kids spending Christmas in the Children’s Hospital. In a season that can so easily become focused on receiving, we want to look beyond ourselves and give back to those who may be experiencing hardship this Christmas.
With the help of the community, we are looking to collect new toys, baby items, craft supplies, games and teen items to be handed out to kids experiencing illness at the Children’s Hospital this Christmas. Not only are you giving back, but you’ll also be entered to win 1 of 3 amazing grand prizes! (Check social media for grand prize updates)
Toy drop off locations are the Corner 2 Corner office (10061 Pth 32 Winkler, Manitoba from 8:30-5) or the LMS office
(24078 MB-3, RM of Stanley from 7:30-5:30) just outside of Morden. When you drop off, you’ll be able to choose which prize you’d like to be entered to win. If you can’t make it to one of our drop off locations, no problem! If you are in Winkler, Morden, Altona, or Carman, we can come to you! Just send us a message via Instagram, Facebook, or email. Once a week, our Christmas van will be on it’s way to pick up your gift and collect your grand prize entry ballot.
Children’s Hospital plays a monumental part in the lives of families effected by long term and short term illness. What better time to give back than now? Check out the Kids Christmas Wish List below to see eligible items for donation!
