Local businesses put together Christmas Market for HopeKids families
Posted
On Saturday, Dec. 17, HopeKids partnered with several Valley businesses to provide a Christmas Market benefiting families who have a child with a life-threatening illness.
At this event, parents struggling economically due to their child’s medical condition, were able to “shop” for complimentary toys for every child in their family. Parents were able to choose up to four gifts per child as well as stockings stuffed with goodies.
Thousands of toys including dolls, Legos, barbies, bikes, electronics and gift cards filled the lobby of Wan Hai Lines, the sponsor and host of the event.
HopeKids was able to provide an abundance of toys to kids this year which would not have been possible without the help of Valley businesses hosting toy drives and volunteering time at the event. HopeKids offers its gratitude to Wan Hai Lines, CITY Sun Times, Marriott Hotels, Athleta, Scottsdale Christian Academy, RedRum Biker Club, Insperity, The Jones-Gordon School, L’entrata Wine, Life Community Church and HopeKids Arizona State Board.
One of the families who attended the event said, “Hopekids is the best thing that has happened to us in our life. Such amazing people that have so much compassion. Thank you for making life more enjoyable.”
