The Pan Pacific Christmas Wish Breakfast will take place at the Pan Pacific Hotel in Vancouver on December 11, 2014, from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m., with Global TV in attendance as always.
\n\"Christmas

I love attending this event, where you donate a gift and then have breakfast with a lot of happy people sharing in the giving spirit of Christmas. Basically you just bring along a new, unwrapped toy (or a cash donation). Everything goes to the Lower Mainland Christmas Bureau<\/strong>, which helps needy children over the Christmas season.<\/p>\n

Last year the event was attended by 5,000 people who together donated over 12 tons of toys and $25,000 in cash. The donors shared in a breakfast that included over 12,500 sausages, 1,200 lbs of hashbrowns, 800 kg of eggs, and 4,200 croissants!<\/p>\n

Some generous people even donate bikes<\/strong>. Here\u2019s me at last year\u2019s event, admiring the donated bikes.<\/p>\n

\"Donated

Some of my happiest childhood memories are of Christmas mornings with a shiny new bike, so I think donating a bike to a needy child is a wonderful thing to do. Donating a bike at the Pan Pacific Christmas Wish Breakfast is definitely on my bucket list. Last year I left it too late and had to settle for donating a last-minute toy from Toys \u201cR\u201d Us. Maybe this year I\u2019ll pull it off and show up with a shiny new bike and finally donate a bike!<\/p>\n
