13th Annual Christmas Toy & Food Drive
December 1-20 2008
Join us in our continued support of the local area food banks and The 4C's by participating in our annual Christmas Challenge. All you need to do is make a decision to get involved, collect items such as gifts and non-perishable foods to donate, call the other businesses! Challenge other families! Host a Christmas party and instead of a hostess gift, ask your guests to bring a non-perishable food item! There are lots of ways HCHBA at 705-457-2629 and arrange for a member to pick up your collected items. It is that easy. You can collect gifts at your place of business, with your family and with your friends. Challenge to collect items for those who need the help, especially at this time of year. Last year, Haliburton County showed tremendous support and made the HCHBA 2007 Christmas Challenge the most successful to date. We challenge you to help make the 2008 Christmas Challenge even better! Let's make sure that everyone in Haliburton County has a gift under the tree and a good holiday meal to celebrate all the things that make this season special.
