The Generosity Keeps on Coming!

Another absolutely incredible day! It started with 87-year old Nick puttering up in his car and offering a fairly new computer & monitor. This was followed by Jim & Richard & Ronald and their incredible donations. Then Mike, a young fellow from Toronto stopped by and donated a keyboard, several games, and even some cute mouse pads that any kid will love!

Later in the day, Allen & Maggie came and unloaded a full carload of equipment - I was just speechless in gratitude. Later Dennis & Shawn brought more items. Throughout the afternoon my #1 techie guru elf, Geoff, was turning on computer after computer, to get a clear picture of what we had available.

Around 6pm, one of my reindeer, Dennis, brought in an amazing system from Steen in Delta. Then we got in Dennis' 4-wheeled sleigh and went to pick up donations from Peter and more items from Richard. We then went over to Suzi's. Wow! She was donating an amazing Mac computer that is going to give a teenager some unbelievable capabilities to express their creativity in countless ways. We ended up the journey by picking up a custom built powerful computer from Santa Bob.

To end out the night, Kelly and her husband, Jeff (pictured above), made their way in from Richmond through what seemed like torrential rains, dropping off a potpourri of items including a countless number of printers. They had also kindly stopped by Stan's to bring in a Mac from him. Thank you all. Your kindness WILL make a difference in the homes of many families this coming year!
