Wrightwood, CA – Mountain High Resort in Wrightwood is supporting needy families of the High Desert this holiday season with a toy and canned food drive sponsored by The Society of Saint Vincent De Paul. Any guest who brings an unwrapped toy or non-perishable food item to Mountain High between November 28th and December 16th will receive $10 off an adult, 8-Hour lift ticket to ski or ride the popular Southern California resort.
The discounted lift ticket must be purchased at the time of donation. This promotion may not be used in conjunction with any other discount or offer, and the donation may not be redeemed for cash.
“We are very proud to offer this promotion,” says Cindy Shippy, Resort Experiences Manager at Mountain High. “Saint Vincent De Paul is a powerful source for good, not only during the holidays but all year long, and we are happy to be helping such a worthy cause.”
The Society of Saint Vincent De Paul’s primary goal is to alleviate the suffering of those who are less fortunate. They depend solely on donations of food, clothing, and money from parishioners, residents, and local businesses. Although they are a Catholic organization, they offer help to all individuals regardless of religion, race, age, gender or lifestyle. This help is mainly in the form of food, toiletries, clothing and household supplies but may also involve assistance with propane and other household utilities as our funds permit.
The local Conference operates from the two parishes of Blessed Junipero Serra in Phelan and Our Lady of the Snows in Wrightwood, serving the tri-community area of Wrightwood, Pinion Hills and Phelan, Calif. This past 2010-11 fiscal year, they served more than 5,700 people.
