Jeff Brown is once again giving back this holiday season with a free Christmas dinner event in Ladner.
The Jingle & Mingle Community Party takes place at Fishermen’s Hall and is for anyone looking for a place to go and connect with others on Christmas Day.
Last year’s gathering attracted about 45 people, said Brown, who is organizing the event again with his mom Shirley.
“The event itself went really well,” he said, noting the leftover food was distributed to people on the Downtown Eastside.
There was also great volunteer support from the community, he said.
There will once again be games, socializing and live music from Rachael Chatoor. Vagellis Grill & Lounge is helping out again by providing use of its kitchen, he added.
Brown is a Delta Secondary grad who now lives in South Surrey.
The event takes place Sunday, Dec. 25 at the Fishermen’s Hall, 4481 Savoy St., Ladner. Doors open at 3:30 p.m. and dinner is set for 5 p.m.
Those who would like to attend are asked to RSVP by calling 778-829-7296 or 604-715-0970 or emailing [email protected].
Anyone interested in volunteering for the event are welcome to reach out as well.
