PNE is expensive and would have been hard to get the passes. It was a great family activity and very grateful to have had the opportunity to go together as a family.

I took my children to playland with our passes, and they had a wonderful time on all the rides. This activity was one I would not have otherwise been able to afford so really appreciate the passes!

To the family who helped us over the holidays — words cannot describe how grateful I am for your kindness and support. You made my family’s Christmas one of the best yet. My kids woke up completely surprised, and the look of joy on their faces while opening the gifts was unforgettable. I wish I had the chance to thank you in person. You made such a huge impact on us this year. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We are so grateful.

Thank you so much for your generosity! This was my baby’s first Christmas. Last year, we spent Christmas in the hospital, and now, after finally securing housing, this holiday felt so special. All the gifts were amazing. Thank you again.

Thank you so much. My family is beyond grateful for the thoughtful gifts. We received so much more than expected — things we both needed and wanted. I wish I could hug you all. The joy you brought to me and my family is something I hope to pass on to others in the coming years.

The hamper meant so much to us. The care put into the gifts truly showed, and my kids absolutely loved everything. Seeing their excitement and smiles meant the world to me. I cannot thank the donor enough, especially for the gifts for my parents. My dad, who has Alzheimer’s and a lung tumour, was overjoyed with the outdoor chair. Seeing him smile like that is something I haven’t witnessed in years. As a single mom of four children, three with special needs, your kindness made our Christmas meaningful. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Thank you so much for making our request come true. We loved our matching pajamas and wore them on Christmas Day for family photos. It made the moment extra special.
