What a huge success and a lot of fun.
The Grinch and Santa was there and so many of his helpers!
The Grinch was able to keep up with his antics while navigating through the approximately 100 cars to share his (3x’s the size) heart to each child he saw! Many shared their love with high fives and fist bumps as well as screaming “I love you, Grinch!” He had special grinch themed gifts he gave out to those children he bonded with.
Thanks to friendships made from past disasters starting from the 2016 Southeast wildfires in Lake Lure, NC, Pickens County, SC and Gatlinburg Tn to Cartoon classes at the library to Hurricane Helene we were able to pull off a huge success again this year for a toy giveaway! We had an estimated 100 cars or more drive through and was able to help an approximately 450 kids for Christmas with only slight delays on getting some hot cocoa.
And the most incredible support from all the volunteers as well as our donor that was able to provide them with sneakers and some families!
A huge thank you to Doug Underwood and his wife Mary for bringing toys from Charlotte and Jason Dominy for bringing food and Toys from Ga as well as all the supporters of them and High Country Arms for teaming up and opening up your doors once again this year!
