Bringing Smiles Through the YCCA Toy Giveaway

Our YCCA Toy Giveaway made a significant impact, bringing exceptional gifts to 136 families. Children’s faces lit up as they selected items ranging from electronics to sporting equipment, educational games, and more. Special shoutout to Davis Food Co-Op, IKEA West Sacramento, Pure Form Training West Sacramento, Capitol Tech Solutions, and League of Heroes Inspired for donating toys! It was heartwarming to see their excitement and know that each gift made a meaningful difference.

A VIP Experience with the Sacramento Kings

An unforgettable moment came during a special Sacramento Kings event, where ten YCCA families were treated to an exclusive evening with De’Aaron Fox. Families had the chance to meet the beloved player, engage in meaningful conversations, and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Thoughtful Giving Through Dignity Health’s Giving Tree

Through Dignity Health’s Giving Tree program, 249 individuals received beautifully wrapped presents tailored to their wants and needs. These thoughtfully selected gifts brought immense joy to each recipient, reflecting the care and compassion that defines the holiday season.

Sutter Health’s Generosity Brightens the Holidays

One highlight of last year’s efforts was the heartfelt $5,000 sponsorship from Sutter Health, which helped us bring holiday cheer to hundreds of families. This generosity ensured that many families received gifts to brighten their holidays, spreading smiles and lifting spirits throughout Yolo County.
