Description
The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
1st Session
42nd Parliament
A
Member
for
richmond
north
center.
Thank
you,
mr
speaker.
The
holidays
are
time
for
joy,
but
can
also
be
a
very
challenging
time,
especially
for
the
more
more
vulnerable
individuals
and
families
this
season
brings
with
more
challenges
than
ever
before,
due
to
covert
19,
which
is
why
it
is
more
important
than
ever
that
we
recognize
and
support.
Amazing
programs
like
richmond,
cares.
Richmond
gives
richmond
christmas
fund.
A
This
year,
this
charitable
campaign
is
able
to
help
three
thousand
richmond
families,
children,
teens
and
seniors,
with
food
vouchers,
gift
certificates
and
over
ten
thousand
toys.
I
would
like
to
take
this
opportunity
to
extend
my
most
sincere
appreciation
to
ceo
at
gassy
co-chairs
wayne,
toshita
rob
howard,
michael
chill
and
the
committee.
A
I
also
like
to
thank
the
nine
angel
donors
who
have
stepped
up
with
ten
thousand
dollars
each
to
support
those
in
need.
Special
thanks
must
be
given
to
the
200
volunteers
and,
of
course,
the
many
charitable
donations
from
our
community
richmond
cares.
Richmond
gives
quick
broadcast
program
every
year
has
been
an
integral
part
of
richmond
for
more
than
40
years.
They
work
to
support
those
in
need
and
their
efforts
to
promote
philanthropy
and
the
spirit
of
giving
cannot
be
celebrated
enough,
so
this
season.
