Christmas Wish Breakfast 2008

Comments 2 by Rebecca Bollwitt

In just a few minutes I’ll be heading to the Pan Pacific for the annual Christmas Wish Breakfast.

It’s become a tradition of giving in Vancouver where everyone is invited to come down, bring an unwrapped toy between 6:00am and 9:00am and enjoy a complimentary breakfast. In case you don’t have time to come in for a meal, there is also a drop off “express lane” open where you can still donate and receive a donut to go.

This is the largest toy drive fundraiser in the Lower Mainland [News1130] and it helps to make sure every child in our region has something special under the tree this season.

    This is a huge tradition, and I think it’s great. I was watching it on the news before I headed to work. I’d totally do it, but unfortunately it’s out-of-the way and I am usually at work. It’s awesome you’re there 🙂
