Thank you to all of the donors who participated in the Flamborough Connects Holiday Gift Program! We have received some amazing feedback from recipients saying how much they appreciated the gifts they received, how wonderful it was to get things from their wish list and how welcome items like slippers, clothes, blankets and gift cards were. People talked about how happy they were to receive a gift and how touched they were at the thoughtfulness and generosity that went into choosing the perfect gifts.

I wanted to pass those words of thanks on to the many generous Flamborough residents who donated gifts, money and their time to help make the Holiday Gift Program successful and to make someone’s Christmas brighter.

Hearing from Holiday Gift Program participants who were so positively impacted this festive season reinforced what a remarkable community Flamborough is. People across the many towns and rural areas that make up Flamborough willingly help strangers by donating to gift programs, food banks and money collection tins.

Because a stranger is just a friend you haven’t met yet.

Thank you, Flamborough, for your awesome community spirit and support
