12 Days of Giving

The 12 Days of Giving is a school-wide event, where our school community can work together to collect various food items, which will be used to create Holiday Food Hampers for families who may need additional support over the holiday season.

The 12 Days of Giving will begin on Wednesday, December 6th, with the final day being on Tuesday, December 19th. For each of the days, there will be a theme. If your family is able to donate an item on one, three or even all 12 days, your donation(s) will greatly appreciated. Every little bit helps! The following chart shows the theme for each day, with examples of items that could be donated.

Please note: this is a suggested timeline for donating items. If you would like to bring in items on a specific day and they are not part of that day’s theme, you are more than welcome to bring in the items on a day that works for you.

Starting on Monday, December 4th, we will also have our Tree of Giving set-up near the main entrance. Similar to trees you may see at the mall, we will have ornaments hanging with a child’s gender and age labelled on the ornament. If your family would like to support a child by purchasing a present, a family member may take an ornament from the tree, purchase a present for the child, then bring the unwrapped gift to school by Friday, December 15th We will ensure the child receives the gift before the holidays.

Thank you very much for your support and we hope the act of giving helps families feel great, knowing they are helping make someone’s holiday season a special one.
