The Hannibal Central School District continued its decades-long holiday giving tradition this year with its Christmas Bureau initiative.

The district hosts an annual Christmas Bureau carnival, which serves as its premiere fundraising event. This year’s event, held in November, raised thousands of dollars through basket raffles, concessions and games.

“The turnout was incredible, and the support we received truly reflects the strength of our community,” said event organizers. “Thanks to everyone’s efforts, we were able to make the holiday season brighter for many HCSD families.”

The fundraising efforts enabled volunteers to create baskets filled with food and toys for local families in need, ensuring that every family in the district can experience the joy and warmth of the holidays.
