LAS VEGAS, Dec. 15, 2021 /Standard Newswire/ -- CityServe Nevada partners with HOPE for Prisoners, Paula White Ministries, World Vision, and SOS Radio 90.5 for the 7th annual 100 Christmases event on December 15th at Ahern Hotel in Las Vegas to benefit children of incarcerated parents. 100 Christmases reunites children with their parents for a true Christmas experience for families who otherwise would be unable to spend time together.
 
"We are honored to participate in this incredible event and partner with great organizations to provide a Christmas these children will never forget," said Dave Donaldson, CityServe co-founder and chairman. "The Prisoner is one of CityServe's Compassion Initiatives and we are dedicated to care for them and their families so they can transition into a better life."

100 Christmases transformed the Ahern Hotel into 100 individual living rooms complete with a lit Christmas tree, gifts for the children, and a traditional Christmas dinner. One hundred inmates with good-standing behavior and who are expected to be released within the next 18 months will be reunited with their children for a memorable Christmas. A Christmas message was provided by Pastor Paula White and featured performances by Mike Weaver of Big Daddy Weave. Each family had a dedicated host and took home gifts, Christmas tree and living room furniture as an additional blessing.

"Christmas is about family – it is all about putting aside the challenges and stresses of life and focusing on our loved ones. Family reunification is one of the most important components of the HOPE for Prisoners program and this event is the start of this process for many of these families," said Jon D. Ponder, HOPE for Prisoners founder and CEO.
