Thanks to generous donations from the community, over $255,000 worth of gifts were given, helping over 800 families.
"You can see on the parent's faces, their joy and appreciation, for this little bit of help because again the Christmas season can be so challenging when you're having to decide between rent and a roof over your head, or food on the table," Early said.
"Seeing the young people happy and joyous, recognizing there are people in the community who care for them," explained Edward King, Chief Operating Officer for United Way. "This time of year, this is what it's all about."
"It's a blessing, it's a blessing," said mother Miyra Ramirez. "It's nice to know that there's still people out there who care for families and the giving, you know."
In-Shape Fitness hosted the night of holiday fun and also boasted the most donations dropped off at workout facilities across the region. Marketing Specialist Mallory Yagamata said it's what makes this time of year so joyful.
