It’s the most wonderful time of the year …and our elves can help busy shoppers!

November 30, 2017

Since 2008, volunteers have been wrapping gifts and checking coats all in support of St.Amant.
“This year, most of our volunteer shifts filled up in a 24-hour period, we have so many return volunteers who love to support St.Amant, get in the holiday spirit and help busy people!” said Juliette Mucha, Director of St.Amant Foundation.
Only a few shifts are available on December 24th.
“We wrap all gifts – whether purchased at the mall or not. We’ve had some folks who bring in carloads of gifts and we count on their support every year,” said Mucha.
The gift wrap and coat check shop, sponsored by Desjardins Financial Security Investments – St. Vital Branch, is open during mall hours at St. Vital Centre from December 1 – 24.
The gift wrap and coat check is located in a store next to Hudson’s Bay. All donations support recreation and leisure activities, education and technology, specialized equipment for over 1,600 children & adults with developmental disabilities and autism supported by St.Amant.
Those interested in volunteering can sign up at www.stamant.ca/giftwrap.
