Making Spirits Bright

Saturday, December 3rd

What is Making Spirits Bright?

Making Spirits Bright is an annual event coordinated by Fresno EOC Sanctuary and Support Services and various partners that will provide holiday cheer for 25 low-income families. The location changes annually as each year a new Fresno County elementary school is selected.

Families will receive gifts, stockings, family basket, and a Christmas tree. Sanctuary’s Making Spirits Bright event brings together Fresno’s businesses and community groups working together to serve others.

Our 2021 partners: PG&E, Amazon, and private donors.

Since 1994, Making Spirits Bright has reached 820 families, including 2,913 children residing in Fresno County.
