Operation Elf, which stands for Everyone Loves Family, is a non-profit organization that helps families who need during the holiday season. Families in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont and Rhode Island. The goal, to make sure every child has a gift for the holiday they celebrate. After riding shot gun last year on the box truck for Operation Elf, seeing personally the love for families that happened as we dropped off leaf bags full of labeled gifts, for families who may not ask for help. The non profits expression of gratitude when we arrive was beautiful. Operation Elf is a group of volunteers who raise money and shops for children whose families may be going through a hard time. We honorably go out to our communities and ask for help for people that need it, who may not want to ask. We ask for your help finding those families and also, raising the money to purchase, and provide what is needed. Please take a look at Operationelf.org We are up to over 1200 children this year and expect more as the holiday gets closer. We have our event to bring it together in Burlington this year on December 11th. As the Auction Manager with my partner William Zoulias we have gone out to the community and asked for donations of Auctions items such as items you may have never opened, or Ballet, Show tickets, Patriots, Celtics, Bruins, Red Sox tickets, Lottery Tickets we will make a gift out of. Please click on the link operationelf.org and add your information and how you will like to help this year. Thank you in advance look forward to meeting you.
