For the past 20 years, Arizonans for Children has been organizing an annual holiday party specifically catered to foster kids in Arizona. In the year 2022, our event saw an attendance of 475 people. We took great pleasure in providing a delightful feast consisting of hot turkey, mashed potatoes with gravy, salad, vegetables, and delectable pastries. Throughout the party, a DJ played music that was specially requested by the children, resulting in lively dancing in the aisles. The party received an extra touch of magic when Santa Claus and the beloved mascot of the Phoenix Cardinals, Big Red, made a special appearance. Following the exciting visit, it was time for the distribution of presents. Each and every child was overjoyed to receive multiple gifts, making the occasion truly memorable.
