Celebrating Our 52nd Year of Bringing Joy to Children

Where: AVA Theatre At Casino Del Sol

When: December 18th 2022 @ 10AM

HISTORY OF A MIRACLE

It started 52 years ago when Ramon Gonzales, a retired sheet metal worker, took $125 from his own pocket to host a

 Christmas Eve party for the neighborhood children. The party was held at his house on 31st Street in South Tucson.

(Hence the name, “Ramon's Miracle on 31st Street”.)

Gonzales lived in a small stucco home, and initially he cooked hot dogs in the backyard.

 While Ramon's son Manuel, and Ramon's wife Carmen, are the current driving force of the program, 

 in the true spirit of giving, other community members have volunteered to assist in many ways.

Currently, more than 100 community members join in to help. 

A few years ago “Miracle” became is a 501(c) 3 charitable organization, with no paid staff. 

The Board and the more 

 than 100 people who come together every year are all volunteers.

The Pascua Yaqui Tribal Council has generously donated the use of the Casino Del Sol's AVA

 Theatre for the many children we are expecting to attend the event.
