One of the great things about living in a small town is that sense of community that you just don’t get being one of an anonymous millions living in a big city. You have a real sense of your contributions making a difference to those you share this community with.
Every year, Truckee opens its heart and ample generosity to those in need, with food, coats and toys. (For a great article on all the many charitable pies Truckee Community Christmas has its finger in, read this wonderful article from the Sierra Sun. www.sierrasun.com )
And every year, I am part of this event – organizing, recruiting,… begging for help, LOL! We always need volunteers! People to make donations, people to help sort all the donations, people to ask for donations for the food barrels at the grocery stores. (Did you know that they often have pre packaged food bags for a small fee, and all you have to do is pay for it at the cash register with your regular grocery purchase? No muss, no fuss! It couldn’t be easier.)

Lynn Richardson, from Truckee Community Christmas and Brooke Bentley are excited to partner for the fourth year!
La Galleria will partner with Truckee Community Christmas for the fourth year by accepting food donations which help feed families in the local community. Bring in a small bag of non-perishable food items between December 4th and December 20th and receive 15% off one item!
