About this Event
The Winter Giveback 2026
Legacy Hires & Beneby's Bakery are proud to host a Donation Drive in support of The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) and its Precision Child Health initiative, which helps doctors diagnose faster, treat smarter, and predict better.
All contributions (whether monetary donations or gifts-in-kind) go directly toward advancing research, supporting families, and bringing comfort to young patients.
By donating new toys, books, toiletries, or gift cards, you’ll help brighten hospital stays and support essential care year-round. Every gift, no matter the size, makes a real difference in helping SickKids continue its mission to create a healthier future for every child.
🎟 Tickets: Free!
