PHOTOS: 300 Students Receive Free Holiday Gifts at Blackstone School

Action for Boston Community Development (ABDC) threw a large holiday party for hundreds of kids at the Blackstone School on Tuesday night. 

About 300 children from the South End/Lower Roxbury neighborhoods were treated to toys and gifts at the Blackstone Community School, courtesy of ABCD’s South End Neighborhood Service Center, and community leaders and volunteers. 

Kids each got a chance to pick out a holiday gift, enjoy cotton candy and popcorn, and participate in various activities including a moon bounce, a dance floor, face painting and wreath decorating.

Community members and business leaders Edward P. Collins, Peter J. Sullivan and Pamela Ward were acknowledged for their donations and long-time support of the center.
