BrightStart Caledon Family Centre is thrilled to announce the overwhelming success of a toy donation initiative, made possible through the incredible generosity of community members, local businesses, and partnering organizations. Donated toys were collected during individual toy drives organized by:

  • “Christmas in the Valley” Donations (Downtown Bolton BIA)
  • CIBC (Downtown Bolton Branch)
  • Canadian Black Belt Academy
  • Garden Foods Market
  • Amazon Fulfillment Centre – Bolton

The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) played a key role by collecting the toys and delivering them to BrightStart Caledon Family Centre’s main location in Bolton. The contributions have been sorted and will soon bring joy to the children  and families who are supported by BrightStart Caledon and other local organizations like Children’s Aid Society and Family Transition Place, who work to assist families in need during the holiday season.

“This incredible show of support is a true reflection of the kindness and generosity that makes our community so special,” said Tracey Stewart, Program Manager for BrightStart Caledon, “Thanks to these donations, many families will experience the joy of the season in what might otherwise have been a difficult time.”

BrightStart Caledon and the OPP extend their deepest gratitude to all participating organizations and the generous members of the community who donated toys this year. Together, these efforts demonstrate the power of collaboration and compassion in bringing holiday cheer to families in our community.
