According to Warden, this is the fifth time the community has participated. “Our community’s response to this effort is historically strong, and we expect this year to be no different,” said Warden. “We are proud and honored to support Commissioner Weekly’s initiative to ensure that every child in Southern Nevada has a gift this holiday season. Most importantly, we invite everyone to join us. It takes an entire community to make a difference for these kids.”
