🌲🎁PLEASE READ - SOMETHING AMAZING HAS HAPPENED 🌲
It's a long post but we need to take a moment to share how the community has come together for our first Christmas Present Appeal to help families who might have faced a difficult Christmas.
As we wrap up the appeal we wish to extend our deepest gratitude to everyone involved.
Firstly, to everyone who has donated. Gifts have poured in, to the extent that we were able to support more families than we had initially thought. Our original target was 50 but we ended up with 110 in total. Your generosity and compassion is truely amazing! You haven't just donated a present, you have changed a memory.
We are incredibly grateful to St Bridget's PS and Danielle McTaggart, Social Work for partnering with us on our first venture to help families who need it most. Thank you for helping make this a success.
A big thanks to Tam and Janie Payne who came up with the idea and made it reality and also to the group of people they brought together to help organise Burns Freeland @ Jemma Reekie, Reekie, Payne.
What a wonderful community we have!
Garnock Valley Health & Fitness Centre wishes everyone a safe and happy Christmas
