Toy Drive: The Gift of Eid for Every Child in Our Community

🌙✨ With the spirit of generosity and community at heart, this Ramadan marks a special collaboration between the Alberta Avenue Business Association, Masjid Quba and Freshco Coliseum Grocery.

Our aim is to spread the joy of Eid to children in our community. We’re organizing a toy drive because we believe every child deserves the happiness of receiving a gift during this festive season. ✨

To make this happen, we’ll be placing toy collection drop-off boxes in businesses along the Avenue as well as hosting a toy collection/donation table at Coliseum Freshco (8118 118 Ave) on March 23 and March 30 from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm.

The toys we collect will be distributed to children on Eid day, following the main Eid Prayer at Masjid Quba, as well as to children in neighboring communities.

Let’s join hands to make this Eid a memorable and joyful occasion for all the children in our community.

For more details, feel free to reach out to us via DM or email Saharla@Alberta-Avenue.com 🌙✨🧸🪀
