Pics with Saint Nick means donations for families in need in Burnaby

By

BURNABY (NEWS 1130) – Tis the season! You’ll start to see Santa Claus around the Lower Mainland malls.

Stephan D’Souza with Burnaby Community Services says you can give back to people who don’t have as much this Christmas season by taking a picture with ol’ Saint Nick at Metrotown.

“They have Santa come in to meet with children and their families, and they get to share their Christmas lists and get a picture with Santa. All the proceeds from that program are donated to the Burnaby Christmas Bureau to support low-income families and seniors,” says D’Souza.

“Christmas time is a very special time, not just for families but for everyone to feel like their kids have te best they can, that they’re not left behind while everyone else is celebrating.”

The seasonal charity effort started yesterday and runs until December 24th.
