Every year, kids in foster care across Montreal get a holiday gift because a bunch of us show up for them. This is a collab with Batshaw Youth & Family Centers, and I'd love for you to be part of it.
Here's how it works:
1. Message
@tania_raffaele16 and tell her you're in. She sends you a kid's Santa letter. Want more than one? Take as many as you like.
2. Each letter has a child's first name, their age and three wishes. Pick one, or buy all three. The minimum is $40 per child, and honestly, the Black Friday deals have been amazing for this.
3. Wrap it so it can travel. This gift is going on a road trip, so skip the fragile bows. Everything goes in a gift bag with the letter taped or stapled on. It's the system that works best.
4. Drop it off at one of our drop-off points all over Montreal. You get the list when you register and commit. Letters arrive around November 12, and drop-offs run Nov 25 to Dec 1. Yes, that's early, but your gift goes to Batshaw first, and then the social workers get it to the kids. That's why it needs to travel well.
Want to help but this sounds like too much with everything else going on in December? I get it. You have two other options:
📦 Option B: Buy the gift on Amazon, ship it to one of our Amazon points, and choose Amazon gift wrap at checkout. Done.
💸 Option C: Make a monetary donation and our team does the shopping for you.
To join, message @tania_raffaele16 with your choice (A, B or C) and how many letters you want to take on.
Please only sign up if you know you can follow through, because a kid is counting on that gift.
Swipe through, save this for later, and send it to the friend who always says "I wish I could do something."
This is it. 🎁
