Nanaimo students bringing everyone Christmas smiles and gifts
NANAIMO — A group of Nanaimo high school students are doing their part to ensure no-one goes without a Christmas present this year.
Students at Nanaimo District Secondary School are partnering with local elementary and pre-schools to build Christmas care parcels for those experiencing homelessness in the area.
Their goal is to create and donate 450 care packages to local shelters which will be handed out to those in need.
The project is done through non-profit organization Everybody Deserves A Smile (EDAS).
