Exploring Holiday Traditions

As we near the holiday season and start to engage in our traditions it’s always fun to find out how other people celebrate this time of year. Being an immigrant myself, I have always been curious of other people’s traditions around the end of the year and what it means for our Power To Be Community. I started asking around and of course, realized there are so many ways to celebrate and show gratitude.

Tradition #1

“In France, where I am from, every year, I would place one of my shoes under our Christmas Tree so Santa would know where to put my present. I would also go to my grandma’s house to also place one of my shoe. So you can imagine my grandma’s Christmas Tree with her 3 children’s shoes plus her 11 grandchildren! Lots of shoes!!” – Shared by Manue, Power To Be staff
