French Brothers understands the importance of helping others and giving back. This past Christmas season we were honored to participate in the 2015 Big Givers Event. We were also able to hear other people and organizations share their Big Givers Event experiences. Big Givers is a giving event company that helps cities, towns and organizations host giving events to encourage everyday people to become philanthropists.

Our 2015 Big Givers family was the Duran family. This includes two families that live together who combined have a total of seven children between the ages of six to 15. French Brothers matched employee contributions and we were fortunate to be able to raise more than $1,500 to spend on the families. With the money we raised we were able to purchase a Christmas tree, presents for the kids and food for the families from Walmart. We were excited to see the joy in their faces and blessed to be able to bring much-needed joy and laughter into their home during the Christmas season to a beautiful family that has fallen on hard times.

French Brothers is truly thankful for the opportunity to participate in the Big Givers Christmas Edition. We felt we received a gift beyond anything we could have given and look forward to making this a French Brothers tradition for years to come.
