Prince George, B.C. – Some happy faces at the offices of Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) Prince George Wednesday afternoon.

Local business Reflex was there to spread some more Christmas joy, handing out tablets and headphones to kids in the after school program.

Owner Riley Mueller said it was the culmination of an idea he had early last month.

“I really wanted to do something for some kids. I was looking around and thought I’m in a position where I can do something good,” he said. “And after looking around we found BBBS.”

Darbi Brand, program manager for child care programming at BBBS, said the gifts were a great surprise.

“This is just something that really tips it over for them (kids). It was a great surprise to know we were getting this donation.”

Executive director Tim Bennett says it’s just one example of how the business community stepped up to help kids this Christmas season.

“We were very fortunate to receive support not only from Reflex but London Drugs sponsored toys in our traditional and in school programs.”
