On Sunday, December 4, Supreme Gospel Entertainment & Marketing (SGEM), in collaboration with Germantown Church of the Brethren, Lafiya Family Services, X-pressions, Inc., Create the Look, Esther Productions, and other partners, brought the community together for the 26th annual Touching All Communities Toy Giveaway. This marked a significant return to in-person festivities since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, making it a memorable and joyous occasion for all involved.
The event took place at Germantown Church of the Brethren in Mt. Airy, transforming the venue into a festive hub of holiday cheer. One of the highlights of the day was the distribution of toys to over 250 children. Although the real meaning of Christmas revolves around the miracle birth of Jesus Christ, it is important that our most precious youth know just how valuable they are to us. One way of doing such was providing them with toys they may not have otherwise been able to enjoy due to financial hardships.
The smiles on the faces of the children reflected the success of the event in brightening their holiday season.
The atmosphere was further enhanced with delight- ful treats, including pizza, pretzels, and soft drinks— a perfect complement to the festive occasion. The event also featured a Christmas-style karaoke session, where participants showcased their vocal talents in a joyful and lighthearted manner.
From inflatable attractions capturing the attention of the youngest attendees to the numerous volunteers helping serve our participants, the event was a testament to the power of community collaboration. Organizer Sherri Johnson expressed her gratitude for the abundance of volunteers and the overwhelming support from the community.
