SBC Serve The City Christmas - 1Up Single Parent Resource Center signup sheet

Once again SBC is seeking your support in bringing Christmas to local families in partnership with the 1UP Single Parent Resource Center. SBC has committed to support 10 families from 1UP this year. Each family personally submitted their names and gift requests to 1Up Executive Director Sarah Downey to share with SBC.

With the Covid 19 pandemic many obstacles and inconveniences have been presented, but we refuse to let that stop us from getting the essentials and nice to haves for these 10 families. Each person will receive 2 gifts and each household a food hamper with plenty of Christmas goodies and gift cards for a local grocer.

This year there are TWO ways to buy your gifts:
Personally shop for the gift(s) OR Simply make a donation with the link provided below

STEP 1
Register for the Person and Item(s) from this list that states the individuals name and their gift request

STEP 2
*Shop
If you prefer to purchase the item personally, please be sure to have it:
--Wrapped
--Labeled with: Recipients Name, Family # and 1UP
--Dropped Off @ SBC office no later than FRIDAY DECEMBER 11th
OR
*Donate
For those not interested in shopping, we will have a personal shopper assigned to your item who will purchase it and get it to the church for wrapping and delivery. The dollar value allocated to each item has been researched and a fair market evaluation has been determined. Don't let that stop you from putting in a little extra if you want to be generous as there are some expenses not included regarding the food hampers.

If you would like to be a personal shopper or gift wrapper please email Rick at rickboomer@saanichbaptist.org

Thank you for making a difference this year to a single parent & family struggling through these difficult times.

Blessings & Merry Christmas,
Rick
