BUFFALO’S HOLIDAY GIFT TO SINGLE-PARENT FAMILIES
BUFFALO FEDERATION OF NEIGHBORHOOD CENTERS' ANNUAL BRUNCH WITH SANTA INCLUDES CANDY CANE LANE ACTIVITIES, BRUNCH, AND GIFTS
WHAT: BFNC Annual Brunch and Holiday Celebration for Single–Parent Families. Guests will enjoy Holiday activities, a delicious hot brunch, story time with Kente Claus, self-care treats for parents, and shopping at the Holiday Shop for gifts for their children.
Redfern adds,” The response has been very positive, so we have moved the event to a larger venue. We are now hosting the event at our new BFNC Main Street Administration Building. However, the registrations are FULL! We are at capacity; the fun-filled event grows each year! “
BFNC is committed to helping community members overcome quality-of-life obstacles. Brunch with Santa is one of the ways BFNC serves community members.
BFNC will provide 76 families with a delicious brunch while they enjoy music, activities, raffles, gifts, laughs, and a visit with Kente Claus!
