This week, we welcomed clients, friends, and families into the office for our Winter Warmth event — a chance to pause the holiday rush and share a little joy together. It was one of our favourite gatherings of the season, and the energy in the room said it all.
Families enjoyed photos with Santa, colourful face painting, and balloon animals that brought plenty of laughs. We also sent guests home with gifts as a thank-you for being part of our community.
A highlight of the day was seeing everyone come together in support of local families in need. We collected a generous amount of non-perishable food for the Foodbank of Waterloo Region and the Guelph Food Bank, and with the help of our clients and community, raised more than $4,600 for the Food Banks and a local charity. The response was incredible, and we’re grateful for the impact we were able to make together.
Events like this remind us why we do what we do. Bringing people together, celebrating the season, and supporting the communities we serve — that’s the heart of Chestnut Park West.
Thank you to everyone who joined us. We’re already looking forward to next year.
