Celebrating Life in Every Season
(Released: 8 January 2007)

ASC “Santas” spread merriment and good cheer at our holiday celebration.
For men and women who struggle with HIV, addiction, homelessness, or poverty, the holidays can be a difficult and lonely time. To make the season a little brighter for the people we serve, ASC hosts warm and friendly events at Thanksgiving and during the winter holidays.

More than 250 clients and their families attended these special celebrations in 2006. During the winter holiday party, ASC distributed over 1,500 gifts, from children's toys to adult winter wear. Delicious food, great music, joyful smiles, and a spirit of caring defined these marvelous annual traditions at ASC.

Many thanks to those whose generous donations made these events so memorable: American Express, Angelwish Foundation, Cable Positive, CBS, Children's Hope Foundation, The Church of the Transfiguration , Darryl Cutler, D'Agostino Supermarket, Federation of Protestant Welfare Agencies, Bobby HaHa, P.S. 838, Sazon Perez Restaurant, Showtime, Trooper Foods, United Way, and Whole Foods Market.
