Brayden's #Joymakertruck

🌟Thank you Brayden's 🌟

In December Brayden and his family spread joy by driving the around the communities of Welland and Fonthill, raising over $13,000 for Pelham Cares and The Hope Centre.

Sponsored by Welland Chevrolet Buick GMC Inc. the truck had over 20,000 lights hand applied by Brayden and his dad Brad. We are so inspired by this young man who came up with the idea to spread joy to the community during the lockdown six years ago.

Brayden is a student at Notre Dame College School and spends most of his November getting the truck ready and then is out collecting donations for the month of December. His passion for his community extends to volunteering at Local Soup Kitchen’s, Silverstick Hockey Tourney and Community events.

Thank you to all the businesses that sponsored this initiative and a huge thank you to Welland Chevrolet Buick for providing the truck and for raising funds through your test-drive campaign.
