Thanks Paul Nazareth, MFA-P for highlighting the incredible work that Dixon Hall does for so many in the community. We at Kits for a Cause love helping Corporate Groups/ Families/ Faith based orgs. come together and "DO GOOD" for a charity of their choice in their local community anywhere in North America. So many need our help and what better way to celebrate the holidays than by "doing good/ giving back". All the best Paul and thanks for "educating" so many on what really matters!

Together, we’re making a difference in brain health! 🧠✨ We recently hosted a Science & Snack session in collaboration McMaster Institute for Research on Aging , focusing on the critical topic of brain health and dementia awareness. The session featured an inspiring keynote by Anthony J. Levinson, who shared cutting-edge insights and practical strategies for promoting cognitive well-being. Attendees left empowered with tools to take action for healthier minds—and brighter futures. Events like these not only educate and connect communities but also drive impactful programs and research aimed at improving lives.
