With the holidays fast approaching (I know, it’s scary how fast time flies), consider how you can volunteer in your community. This year I am once again giving my time to Santa Comes to Bay Street. A charity that meets at the Design Exchange in Toronto and assembles gifts for families at shelters that may otherwise receive nothing over the holidays. The first “workshop” they held was in 2003; by 2019 it had grown to help 1750 recipients! Please do your part and feel good about giving back (at whatever charity you support) during this holiday season.
