On Saturday, December 12th, 10 La Colonia Families attended an event at Qualcomm stadium hosted by the Nice Guys of San Diego. This event is the Nice Guys largest event of the year beginning back in 1992. Eight hundred families are invited from lists provided by various assistance organizations throughout San Diego County with the Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito’s La Colonia Branch sending 10 families.
The 3,000 children and parents are entertained by live animals, San Diego Police, Fire, and Sheriff officers with equipment, Santa Claus, The Grinch, carnival rides, craft tables and unlimited hot dogs and soft drinks plus much more. Each family departs the event with four bags of groceries including a whole frozen turkey. A $75.00 gift card is also included. In all, the Nice Guys gives away 25,000 pounds of groceries obtained from donors and food banks.
All the families had an amazing time and are very grateful for the generosity of The Nice Guys and their foundation! Learn more about the Nice Guys at www.sdniceguys.com.
