A collaboration with Saint Christopher’s Hospital for Children in, Philadelphia and Saint Genevieve School was formed. The school received the names of 10 families that have a child with a lifelong cardiac condition. Along with the family’s name was a Christmas Wish List for all the children in their family.

The Saint Genevieve School community joyfully fulfilled each family’s Christmas Wish List. Over thirty parents gathered together one evening to wrap and sort the gifts. In addition each family is receiving a non-perishable meal and a gift card to a grocery store of their choice. On Christmas Eve morning, five parents from Saint Genevieve School will dress as Santa along with 8th graders as elves and deliver the gifts and food packages to each family.
