Christmas lights shine in support of The Salvation Army

Sometimes adding an element of generosity at Christmas is an easy thing to do, all it takes is the spark of an idea.

One staple of the holiday season in this part of the world is bright, colourful – sometimes lavish and orchestrated – Christmas light displays. In Halifax, there are a select few houses that top the lists of light aficionados year after year. Two such houses are owned by brothers Nick and Carman Giacomantonio, doctors by day, proud owners of sparkling light displays by night, located side-by-side on Connaught Avenue, near Jubilee Road.

This year, Nick and his family decided to add an element of giving to the display, encouraging passers-by to make a donation – food, clothing or otherwise – to The Salvation Army.

Thank you Giacomantonio family for thinking of The Salvation Army this Christmas.
