This Christmas season, Light Orlando’s 4th Annual Community Christmas Project was a heartwarming reminder of the power of community and generosity. On December 7th, 2024, the Edgewater High School cafeteria buzzed with holiday spirit as 250 volunteers came together for a night of giving back and spreading joy.
When we work together, it is amazing what we can achieve:
Here’s what we achieved together:
• 2,000 Christmas stockings filled with age-appropriate, gender-specific toys and activities to bring smiles to children through local charities.
• 300 snack bags lovingly decorated and packed for donation to Fostering Kindness.
• Dozens of blankets and friendship bracelets handmade to comfort children spending their Christmas at Advent Health Hospital in Orlando.
• 2,552 total band-aids and 604 pairs of children’s undergarments graciously donated by volunteers attending the event- answering the call for two of the most requested shelter needs.
Fun and Fellowship- Light Orlando Events are FUN- the way serving others should be!
At Light Orlando, we believe volunteering should be joyful! After completing their tasks, our volunteers celebrated with an evening of dancing and laughter. The gymnasium turned into a festive dance floor where attendees grooved to holiday hits and created memories together.
This unique blend of meaningful service and lively celebration is what makes Light Orlando events so special. Volunteering isn’t just about giving—it’s about sharing joy and building a community that uplifts one another.
Thank You for Helping us to Deliver Hope this Christmas Season!
To every volunteer who gave their time, creativity, and donations—thank you! Your contributions are making the season brighter for so many in our community.
As we wrap up another successful year, we’re already looking forward to next year’s Community Christmas Project. Let’s keep the spirit of giving alive all year long!
