You’re invited to take part in an ongoing tradition that combines family fun and the heavenly scent of gingerbread with the opportunity to make a positive difference in your community.

Registration is ongoing for the eighth annual Gingerbread for Humanity event at Trinity Presbyterian Church in McKinney, Texas.

On Saturday, Dec. 14, you can decorate and take home a fully assembled gingerbread house while supporting North Collin County Habitat for Humanity. The candy buffet — described as “awesome” by children who flock to the event each year — will delight any gingerbread house decorator. Be sure to stop by the photo booth to get a free picture of your family, your gingerbread creation and Mrs. Claus before you leave.
