As the year is coming to an end, we want to celebrate our partnerships in the community that have made events like this possible. What an incredible evening at the Gilbert Lindsay Recreation Center this past Friday! We are so grateful to everyone who joined and supported us during Gilbert Lindsay's 2024 Grinchmas Celebration. A heartfelt thank you to all the volunteers, donors, and participants who came together to spread holiday cheer and warmth. With your support, we were able to provide: - Festive food and warm drinks  - A joyful toy giveaway  - Engaging arts and crafts activities  - Face painting and much more! Create Now was thrilled to support this event by securing toys that brought smiles to so many children's faces.

Let’s keep making a difference and celebrating the incredible partnerships that enrich our community! #Grinchmas2024 #CreateNow #GilbertLindsay #CommunityLove #HolidaySpirit #PostEventThankYou #LosAngelesEvents

This holiday season, Create Now brought joy and smiles to over 500 wonderful youth in our community. Many of these kids would not have had access to holiday toys without the generous support of our partners. Our season of giving kicked off with a festive holiday party and continued throughout December with events hosted in collaboration with El Sereno Stallions, El Sereno Night Market, and Gilbert Lindsay Recreation Center. We extend our deepest thanks to Valley Industry & Commerce Association, REV Athletics, Big Sunday, and Jazwares for providing the toys that lit up so many faces! Special gratitude goes to Music Changing Lives and all our incredible supporters who played a crucial role in securing these gifts. The spirit of giving defines this season, and it’s at the heart of our "A New Era of Change" campaign. As we look forward to expanding our reach and deepening our impact, your support is more crucial than ever. This campaign aims to sustain and grow our programs, empowering more youth through the arts. Consider making a donation this holiday season. Your support allows us to continue our mission and enrich the lives of our community's youth. Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference. Donate today and be a part of a brighter tomorrow for many more children.  https://lnkd.in/gb7Mk5SU #CreateNow #HolidaySpirit #GiveBack #CommunityJoy #ArtEducation #SupportTheArts #SeasonOfGiving @gilbertlindsayrc @musicchanginglives @elserenonightmarket @esstallions @revathleticss @bigsundayorg @vicasfv @jazwares
