Dear editor:

A heartfelt thank you to the Okanagan Falls Community from Okanagan Falls Helping Hand Society. Your generosity this Christmas season has enabled Helping Hand to provide hampers and toys for nearly 40 families in Okanagan Falls. The families each expressed their sincere appreciation that the Community’s help will make this Christmas a joyful one.

To all those who contributed to the “Pink Bin” food donations, to those who gave cash donations, and to those who participated in “Fill the Van” our wholehearted gratitude.

Special shout-outs to Belich Grocery Store for their generous donations and for the gourmet “Fill the Van” BBQ and to James Barnes for once again providing his trailer to fill with food.

From all of Santa’s Elves volunteering with Helping Hand, we hope you have a wonderful Christmas and we wish you a very happy New Year.

Bob Daly
