This season, for our holiday giving campaign, Magic of Snowflakes, we were supported by Tristan, a BGG alumni and success GTA Real Estate Agent, through his initiative to help raise gifts for the Club.

The event, held at Sea Salt Seafood Cafe, was more than just a gathering; it was a celebration of community, generosity, and the spirit of giving. Tristan provided food for the attendees and encouraged guests to bring gifts for the children. The event was filled with positive energy, creating an atmosphere of joy and holiday spirits!

Motivated by the positive impact of BGCES had on his life, he felt the need to give back and make a difference in some way. This led to a touching event where Tristan brought together his family, friends, and professional contacts to contribute to the wellbeing of the children and youth in the Galloway community.

Tristan's journey with BGC East Scarborough began when he was just a child. Alongside his sisters, he actively participated in the after-school and youth programs at the Galloway location during the early to mid-2000s. These programs not only provided a safe haven for Tristan and his siblings but also laid the foundation for their growth and development.

BGC East Scarborough played an active role in supporting Tristan's philanthropic efforts. BGC staff attended the event, shedding light on the challenges faced by the community and emphasizing the crucial role of community-minded individuals like Tristan. They were there not only to talk about the organization but also to provide support and answer any questions from attendees.

Tristan's event was not just a donation drive; it was a testament to the transformative power of community support. The overflowing attendance and the festive vibes underscored the shared commitment to making a difference in the lives of the next generation. His dedication to supporting the next generation serves as an inspiration for others to contribute to the betterment of their communities.
