Mental Health Christmas Party

On December 12, 2023, from 11 am to 3 pm, the Progressive Housing Society proudly hosted our annual Mental Health Christmas Party, a cornerstone event that holds a special place in the hearts of our clients and staff alike. Recognizing that the holiday season can be a challenging time for those with limited family connections or opportunities to celebrate, this event was meticulously planned to ensure a warm, inclusive, and festive atmosphere for all attendees.

The 2023 celebration was marked by an extraordinary turnout and the generous spirit of the community. Through donations from local businesses, our Board of Directors, and the creativity of our staff, we were able to offer an array of door prizes, adding excitement and a sense of anticipation to the festivities. These gifts, ranging from hand-crafted items by our staff to contributions from the community, ensured that the joy of giving was felt by everyone present.

A highlight of this year’s event was the delightful performance by Performing for a Difference, a group of talented young people who came to play holiday music. Their music filled the room with holiday cheer, bringing smiles and sing-alongs, and elevating the spirits of everyone in attendance. The performance added a special touch to the party, making it an unforgettable experience for our clients and staff.

The Mental Health Christmas Party is more than just an annual gathering; it is an affirmation of the supportive community we’ve built at the Progressive Housing Society. It’s an opportunity to come together, share in the joy of the season, and remind one another of the strength found in unity and shared experiences.

We extend our deepest gratitude to all who contributed to making it a remarkable day. The generosity of donors, the enthusiasm of performers, and the dedication of our staff and volunteers exemplified the true spirit of the season.
