In Venice, the holiday season is set to shine brighter with the upcoming community event, Christmas with Danae & Billy. Scheduled for December 10, 2023, this festive celebration aims to spread joy and generosity, particularly benefiting local charities.
Bringing Holiday Cheer to the Community
Danae Franco, the event’s organizer, reflects on her childhood experience, stating that she never celebrated Christmas growing up. This personal history inspires her commitment to ensuring that others in the community can enjoy the warmth of the season. “I want to create a space where families can come together and celebrate,” Franco said.
The event will feature a variety of activities designed to engage attendees of all ages. Families can look forward to festive games, live music performances, and a visit from Santa Claus. Local vendors will also showcase their crafts and food, enhancing the community spirit that the event seeks to promote.
A Mission of Giving Back
Franco’s initiative not only focuses on celebration but also emphasizes the importance of giving back. Proceeds from the event will be directed towards local charities, including food banks and children’s shelters. “We want to make a real difference this holiday season,” she added.
With the support of volunteers and local businesses, the event is expected to attract hundreds of participants. Franco hopes that this will become an annual tradition, fostering a sense of unity and joy in Venice.
As the holiday season approaches, Christmas with Danae & Billy stands as a beacon of hope and community spirit, inviting everyone to join in the festivities and contribute to a meaningful cause.
