It’s that time of year again when Easter Seals Hawaii is preparing for the Annual Gingerbread Family Festivals. The Festival takes place on Sunday, December 4th at the Neal S. Blaisdell Center Exhibition Hall.

This event has become one of Oahu’s favorite island holiday traditions. The Festival raises critical funds so that all of the Easter Seals families will continue receiving services when and where they are needed.

Families bring little ones, grandparents, aunties and uncles. People even take the opportunity to use the Festival as a company holiday party. Easter Seals supplies the fun, you supply the creativity, and we’ll even clean-up after you.

Each Gingerbread Package can be made at the event, or picked-up that same day as a “House to Go.” The gingerbread is made locally by Napoleon’s Bakery and CVS/Longs Drugs is providing all of the candy.

Package Price: $39.00 per house, with all of the money going as a direct donation to Easter Seals Hawaii in support of the many community programs provided statewide.

Festival Registration Forms online at www.EasterSealsHawaii.org or call Easter Seals Hawai’i at (808) 536.1015.
