Winnipeg Police Service News Release:

 

  CHRISTMAS GIFT-DRIVE FOR INNER-CITY AND LESSER PRIVILEGED KIDS

 
November 29th, 2010
 
WINNIPEG POLICE SERVICE ASSISTS WITH GIFT DRIVE
The Winnipeg Police Service is pleased to partner with the Indian Métis Friendship Centre Inc. and Rossbrook House in a Christmas Gift Drive for Inner-city and Lesser Privileged Kids. For several years the Community has organized and hosted a Community Christmas Party for Inner-City and Lesser Privileged Children.  This year a Community Christmas Party for Inner-City and Lesser or Under Privileged Children will held on December 18th 2010 between 1:00 pm and 4:00 pm, at the Indian Métis Friendship Centre, 45 Robinson Street; and, there is a need for new and unwrapped gifts to be donated.
 
While the party is in the North End and many of the North End's children will be recipients; there will be 500 to 700 children, from the ages of infant to 12 years old, that will come from across our city to partake in the Spirit of the Season at this Community Christmas Party. The kids watch movies, participate in crafts, enjoy a healthy dinner with their family, and of course, visit with Santa Claus.
 
This year the Winnipeg Police Service has agreed to aid in this worthy cause through the use of our Service Centres; as Drop-off Depots for New & Un-wrapped Children's Toys. We all know the importance of an event of this nature and we encourage the Greater Community of Winnipeg to participate between November 29th and December 15th by donating a new, unwrapped gift into one of our Service Centre Bins.
