Now in its 31st year, Christmas Stories<\/em> benefits youth development programs for at-risk children. Show proceeds also support a toy giveaway for underprivileged children. Since it began in 1993, the annual benefit has raised more than $520,000 for community programs.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe present Christmas Stories<\/em> each year to support efforts to create a safe environment for children in Hollywood,\u201d said Greg LaClaire, Celebrity Centre Vice President. \u201cThis aligns with these words written by Scientology Founder L. Ron Hubbard: \u2018When children become unimportant to a society, that society has forfeited its future.\u2019 It is with this in mind that we have organized this benefit for local youth for the past 31 years.\u201d<\/p>\n
