Last year Backpocket and Straight Candid worked with the Best Christmas Ever organization and the community raised over $10,000 for a local family in need! Your kindness paid for gifts for the family, paid for a few months of rent, and basically saved the family from getting evicted from their home! Surprising this family last year was incredible and we’re stoked to do it all over again! This year we’re sponsoring a family of 6 who’ve fallen on hard times and they’re currently living out of a hotel. Our goal this year is to raise $20,000 to help get this family out of a hotel and into a home! To Donate Follow the Link Below:  fanlink.to/BCE2021
