Blueridge Cares 2024

What a wonderful place we live. The generosity and kindness of our neighbourhood makes us smile. We purchased, wrapped, tagged, and delivered over 50 gifts to Blueridge families, along with grocery gift cards and other little goodies to help make the holidays bright. The Blueridge elves came through with flying colours. Those who couldn’t buy or donate offered to wrap, deliver, and shop.

There is a team of people who make this possible, and as your head elves, we would like to thank each and every one of you. You make us proud to live where we do. There are also a lot of people who specifically asked not to have their names mentioned, who get special invisible hugs from us as well.
