8 DAYS OF GIVING ANNUAL HOLIDAY EVENT

This dynamic initiative offers 8 consecutive days of community programming that focuses on enriching lives and fostering connections. From fitness and nutrition workshops, self-care sessions, and mental health awareness activities to a STEM fair, art and self-expression, family game nights, heartwarming gift exchanges, and an exclusive Gaylord Resorts ICE experience that creates lasting memories. 

This event typically happens in the evenings and on the weekend during the first week of the holiday break, from December 14th to 21st.

GELP is always seeking to cultivate new relationships and enjoys showcasing local talent. We are currently looking for the following talents and services for our upcoming event: barbers, hair stylists, massage therapists, fitness and yoga instructors, comedians, therapists, poets, artists, culinary chefs, and health professionals.
