We are excited to be invited back to Tsawwassen Mills Mall for the 2025 holiday season.  BC Blind Sports will again be providing gift wrapping services to raise funds for our programs.

 We operate the community kiosk gift wrapping booth at Tsawwassen Mills Mall with the support of volunteers.  Volunteers are supervised by staff and key volunteers of BC Blind Sports.

Volunteer shifts are 4 hours each and we need 3 to 5 volunteers per shift.   We will operate from November 28th to December 24th.
