JOY 2023, our first official Christmas party!

Thank you to our wonderful sponsors and amazing volunteers for all of your help and hard work. Thank you to all of the families who came out to celebrate.

Bringing families together to have fun and make memories.

Families were encouraged to wear their comfiest Christmas sweaters or coziest pajamas, and together we decorated cookies, explored the hot chocolate bar and ate a good, warm meal.

Thanks to our sponsors

Special thanks to the International Association of Women – DFW Chapter for sponsoring us this season, providing gifts for our raffles and volunteering their time to make this event a success!

This year, we wanted to bless families with experiences and gifts that families could engage in together. One such experience was 2 adult tickets to Go Ape Adventure Park! Recipients will embark on a wonderful outdoor, tree top adventure complete with zip-lining, obstacles courses and more. A big thank you to Go Ape for donating the tickets and blessing a family with a unique experience that I’m sure they’ll remember for many years to come.

Our giveaway also included gift cards donated by Dave and Busters, a 5 pack of skating passes donated by Arlington Skatium, games and other gift cards provided by our wonderful donors. We’d also like to thank Costco for their financial contribution, which helped provide a warm meal to all in attendance.
