The Heart of Friendsgiving: Giving Back
At its core, Friendsgiving is about gratitude, and there is no better way to express that gratitude than by giving back. Throughout the evening, we will be collecting new socks and blankets for HOPE for the Homeless.
These simple items can make a world of difference for someone experiencing homelessness during the cooler months. By bringing a donation, you are helping to share warmth, dignity, and hope with our neighbors in need.
It is a small act of kindness that embodies the true spirit of the season.
Make a Night of It
Because the event runs from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM, it is the perfect way to kick off your weekend. You can enjoy a relaxed afternoon, head over to Mountain Park Church for a few hours of community connection, and still be home in time to relax before your Saturday plans.
Bring your friends, bring your family, bring your neighbors. The more, the merrier. This is what Friendsgiving is all about: celebrating the people who make our community feel like home.
We Cannot Wait to See You There
Ahwatukee, this is our moment to come together. To celebrate the abundance we have been blessed with, to support the local businesses that make our neighborhood thrive, and to extend a hand to those who need it most.
This Friday evening, let us fill Mountain Park Church with laughter, music, gratitude, and the warm spirit of community that defines us.
Shop local. Eat local. Give local. See you Friday!
