Help Us Bring Christmas Magic to Life

Join us at the SEF Christmas Market on Sunday, November 30

 

 

This holiday season, Greek Roots is joining forces with the Socrates Educational Foundation (SEF) to create something truly special — a day where imagination sparkles, children’s laughter fills the halls, and the spirit of Christmas comes alive in our community.

Since 1998, SEF has supported thousands of children by helping families access Hellenic trilingual education. Their mission is extraordinary, but on Sunday, November 30, the focus will be something even more magical: bringing joy, warmth, and wonder to the little ones who will walk through the doors of the SEF Christmas Market.

And we need you — our amazing youth volunteers — to help make the magic happen.

From greeting families to guiding excited kids toward Santa, from helping vendors set up their festive displays to handing out goodie bags with a smile, you’ll be part of creating moments that children will remember long after the ornaments come down.

There will be twinkling lights.
There will be holiday music.
There will be 30 vendors offering treasures, treats, and handmade surprises.
And yes… Santa himself is making a Greek-style entrance, frappe in hand!

📍 Location: Socrates III (Roxboro), 11 11e Rue, Roxboro, QC H8Y 1K6
📅 Date: Sunday, November 30 (lunch/snacks will be provided).

This is more than a volunteer opportunity — it’s a chance to help create a beautiful experience for young children, support a great cause, and be part of a joyful community tradition. Join Us!
