Happy New Year! Thank you for being a part of our journey and for making 2016 phenomenal! Our casino night anniversary party was a success. Thanks to Peacemaker MC for graciously opening their awesome clubhouse to us again, thanks to our family and friends who helped us make the event possible, to our many sponsors, and to our supporters who came to party with us. Your contributions helped a displaced family in need! Xtreme Vixens MC adopted a family that had lost their home and all their belongings in a house fire last Summer. Your contributions allowed us to donate more than we could have asked for to the family and for that we're truly grateful. We learned about the family through our affiliation with an organization called, Loving You Back to Life in the Peninsula, a Facebook group full of loving and giving people who offer their items for free rather than charging. It's a wonderful concept that we can give and receive from one another without judgement. We thank organizer Angelina for the opportunity to participate and help, especially the day of LYBTL Peninsula's First Annual Christmas Event! What a fantastic time! We also would like to thank Luck E for the opportunity to spread Christmas cheer to the patients of the Way of the Elders. Many thanks to Howie for your presence as our Santa Claus. It was a day we'll never forget. Thank you again and we look forward to making more memories and helping more people in 2017!

Xtreme Vixens MC-Nor Cal is a proud sponsor of the UMCoAC Annual Toy Run & Adopt-a-Family program! What made this holiday especially important is when a family was accidentally left out by the new organization in charge of the adopt-a-family program. The family was down on their luck. Stricken with back to back to back tragedies and hardships left them homeless and with lack of support. The parents' only hope of getting any sort of presents for their children was through the adopt-a-family program. They used the last of their money for bus fare to get to the event only to find out the organizer of the program had not assigned their family to be helped. They left hurt, embarrassed, and heartbroken. Our club immediately stepped in to make sure they were taken care of. What happened next was incredible. We had the full support of the coalition. Many thanks to the board of UMCoAC, She-Devils MC, Deviants MC, Red Nation MC, and Knyte Ryderz RC for their support and donations. With everyone's help, we were able to surprise all four children with a garbage bag full of toys and clothes for each of them, provided mattresses and bedding for the family members, as well as toiletries, personal items, food and other necessities for the family. Seeing the joy on their faces warmed all our hearts and made it the most special holiday. The mom said the pain and embarrassment she felt were washed away with our kindness. It's amazing what we're able to accomplish when we come together as one with good intentions. We can spread so much good in the world! We're also grateful for the experience because we gained new friends. This loving family will never be alone again! |
