The 2025 Christmas season is quickly approaching and Father John Kelly will once again be supporting the Holiday Heroes Campaign. This year marks the 29th time the Holiday Heroes Campaign has been able to change the lives of families who have come into hard times. We are asking families, if possible, to donate a new, unwrapped toy for children of all ages, gift cards or diapers/baby essentials. Since the launch of the campaign 28 years ago, York Regional Police has raised more than $2 million for families in need during the Christmas season. This year’s school toy drive will run from Monday, November 10 to Friday, December 12. A one-day pick up has been arranged for the morning of Monday, December 15. One hundred percent of donations directly support the children and families from our York Region community who are in need. We would like to thank all families for your continued generosity and support of our school initiatives.
