The Star Boxes is a local charity put on by the Toronto Star (a newspaper) that gifts presents to children in need. They get volunteers around the city to deliver, and Keren organizes a group at our church to deliver about 500 boxes. Or more? I can’t remember.
We do it every year, and Manpans joins us, but I can’t recall if I’ve put that in a comic before. I was probably too lazy to draw boxes, just like I am now.

We had about 700 boxes but I think that’s because we also took St Columbus’ boxes too.
