More than 450 Chai Lifeline Canada family members joined us for our annual Chanukah Party in Toronto. We painted ceramics and our faces, made snow-globes and candles, customized winter hats and posed for photos. The shows by Bumbling Burt Magic and Fairytale Puppet Theatre were so much fun. And of course...we ate!But the very best part was being together to bring in the light (and gifts) of Chanukah.Special thanks to all of our fabulous volunteers, Richmond Bakery, Bounce Entertainment and the BAYT for hosting us.Happy Chanukah to all! ...

Last call!As #GivingTuesday comes to a close, we reflect on the profound impact meal deliveries have on our families."And as he told me this story, the father had tears in his eyes, and he said, 'Until you have a sick child, you can never understand what the impact of this was on myself or on our family. You could never ever understand it.' After that happened, he will never ever forget what Chai Lifeline did for his family. And that's our chicken soup story.” We're deeply grateful for the love spread today and welcome your continued donations tonight at the link below. support.chailifelinecanada.org/givingtuesday2023Thank you for making a difference. 💙🍲#chailifelinecanada #chailifeline #givingtuesdayca #givingtuesdaycanada #givewhereyoulive #spreadlove ...
