Santas Anonymous Fort McMurray

Austan, Nick, and Sydney from Father Merc stopped by to chat about the Santa's Anonymous program that runs through the school. We talked about recent events that happened, future ones coming up, and why they joined the program. post.futurimedia.com/cfvr/playlist/…

As many of us wake up this morning and lament that our light winter jackets don't fit like they used to, that we don't remember where we put away our toques and mitts, and wonder if we need boots yet, there is one more thing to remember! JOY! (1/3) #WeAreFMCSD #ymm

We're back for another year of #ChristmasCheer in #YMM and we're excited for our 37th! Stay tuned for more information and exciting opportunities with #fmsantas #santashopslocal #ymmchristmas

Today we reflect and learn on this National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. We are so thankful to Eli for helping us begin this day on the right note! 🧡💙 #WeAreFMCSD #ymm #rmwb #FortMcMurray

Yesterday we finished up our last fundraiser of 2020. Thanks to Jerry & Jen Neville for connecting us with Santa Claus who did zoom calls & videos for us. That’s a wrap for us as all of our volunteers from Father Mercredi are on Christmas break and getting some much needed rest.

The amazing Merc staff freezing their butts off this morning to pack away leftover toys for next year ❄️❄️❄️

We made it! 500 hampers. Thank you to everyone who supported us.

There’s one more team from @Suncor that we have to thank for collecting donations for us this year and that’s the extractions team. Suncor employees are the best! We appreciate all your support.

Thank you all so much ❤️
