U15 MD 1 Holiday Helpers
The Markham Waxers U15 MD1 Team is helping spread joy to children throughout York Region this holiday season by participating in the “Holiday Helpers” community initiative. Holiday Helpers is a registered charity whose mission is to provide a one-time personalized Christmas package to families with young children living in low-income situations who are trying to improve their circumstances. 

The Holiday Gift Drive offers support for people in need who reside in our partnered municipalities of Aurora, East Gwillimbury, Georgina, King, Newmarket, and Whitchurch-Stouffville. 

We have teamed up this year with The Neighbourhood Network and joined their Holiday Gift Drive this year.  Our team has provided a generous donation of toys to underprivileged children of all ages so that all of the children in our community can enjoy the holiday spirit.
