Making Spirits Bright
December 4, 2021
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, and a Christmas tree. Sanctuary’s Making Spirits Bright event brings together Fresno’s businesses and community groups working together to serve others.
Our 2020 partners: PG&E, Amazon, and private donors.
Since 1994, Making Spirits Bright has reached 795 families, including 2,817 children residing in Fresno County. In 2016, The Making Spirits Bright Committee was recognized as Volunteer Business Organization of the Year by Hands On Central California.
