WHAT A GREAT HOLIDAY PARTY on DECEMBER 16th!

Santa was definitely in the house the weekend! Our Project Angel Wings Holiday Party at Camp Hess Kramer for 125 LA's BEST students and some of CLF's very own Vita Network families was a RAGING success!  Michael Chiklis was our incredible MC, calling out the names of children receiving not just one toy, but huge gift bags for every single one! @odessachik and @autumnchiklis and Alexa and friends- you were GREAT elves! So was our most wonderful @pwsulli , and @thejosephgreco was our TRULY amazing magician! Our beloved Barry Brooker brought his pal @jpruett and his band #ParkerTheory performed live rock in’ Christmas carols... Jane Coccia and great staff at @conejo_photobooth donated an amazing photo booth for the day, and Dea and Dayna Shandera painted some beautiful faces. Ali Thonson, daughter @oliviathonson and her pals, including Lauren Lefitz, created and brought the amazing crafts and arts projects...Ian from @capitalone helped enormously, and also helped give out the handpicked, wish list gifts which he and his coworkers at #CapitolOneCafe purchased for the teens in our #VitaNetwork. Truly spectacular, brand-new toys and gifts were once again donated by @jakkstoys and #JakksCares , @agapespiritualcenter , @yahoosports @danielwebsterelementary pointdumemarinescience and #juancabrillloelwntary schools in Malibu, as well as #brightbeginningsfamilypreschool. Beautiful and lovely @cathy_cygan , @michellechiklis @anniecygan and Jana Cygan- along with pal Michael D’Amato, were ALL amazing!! Shout-outs to our long time DJs and friends- Angel and Veronica, who keep the day running so smoothly... thank you to our dear friends Nancy Dargen, Michael, Angel and Camryn Bundy, and all of our wonderful CLF familes…Tito, you were a huge help-gracias! And thank you @malibutimes for being there to record the day!) Lastly, we need to thank our delightful Jewish Santa straight from Brooklyn, Mark “Kramer” Lederkramer, one of our all-time favorite people! Malibu locals Jenefer Palmer at her company, OSEA Skincare,  donated amazing gift bags fro all of the CLF mothers, as well!
