NASHVILLE, Ga.– First Commerce Credit Union recently donated tickets to send every foster child in Berrien County to a special Breakfast with Santa event at Vee’s Restaurant.
Victoria Hempen, owner of Vee’s Restaurant, hosts the popular Breakfast with Santa gathering every year.
“I try to make it a very special event,” said Hempen. “It is always so much fun to see the children’s faces light up. Not only do the kids get to enjoy a pancake breakfast bar and have their picture taken with Santa, but we also put together gift bags to give to all the children.”
This year, First Commerce said it wanted to make the holidays extra special for Berrien County’s children in foster care.
“First Commerce is always looking for meaningful ways to give back to the communities we serve,” said CEO Cecilia Homison. “During the holidays, we believe every child should have the opportunity to experience the joy of the season. It is our privilege to play a part in helping these children create memories that will last a lifetime.”
