“We want to share the love and warmth of the season,” said Pastor Dozier. “This event is about coming together as a community and bringing comfort to those who need it most. Attendees are encouraged to bring a donation ($10 recommended; not required) but do bring your best singing voice.”
All contributions will go toward creating Christmas baskets, which will be distributed during the event’s second part to unhoused individuals in the local area. The baskets will contain snacks, blankets, scarves, beanies, socks, gloves, toiletries, and water.
For more information or to donate, call (424) 340-9007 or (310) 365-1331. Donations may be made via Givelify, Paypal, Zelle, CashAp, or debit/cards.
“Just give us a call if you need assistance and thank you in advance for helping to spread holiday cheer while making a tangible difference for those experiencing homelessness,” added Pastor Dozier.
