Please join the Wang YMCA on Sunday, December 8th as they host the largest Holiday party in China Town. The Holiday party has been a staple tradition for nearly 40 years. This year, over 700 children and 200 families are expected to celebrate amidst food and holiday themed games such as a bean bag toss through a wreath. Santa also finds time out of his busy schedule to join in on the fun! Santa’s little helpers are teen members of the Wang YMCA, who have been busy wrapping 700+ gifts to handout to the kids in attendance. They will also use their magic to turn the Wang YMCA into a festive winter wonderland filled with balloons.

The Holiday celebration receives a helping hand from organizations all over the Greater Boston area. Every year, the Wong family of the Kowloon restaurant in Saugus donates a surplus of delicious food. This year, the event received food donations from the Double Tree Hilton as well. Converse also donated their time and helped with many of the pre-event preparations. As well as many other local donations.

Tickets are distributed to children in the surrounding neighborhood who could benefit from some additional Holiday cheer. For some children, this may be the only festive meal and present they receive this Holiday season.

Sunday, December 8, 2019, 2:00-5:00 p.m.
