community angel ~ donation collection

Every holiday season, we help more than 55 families in our neighbourhood by providing them and their loved ones with food and gifts. How are we able to do this you ask? We rely on our caring and giving community members and partners to help those in need. Want to help?  We are always in need of new hats, scarves, mittens, clothing, gift certificates, cash, or canned goods. Want to sponsor a family? Contact the centre at 519-741-2491.

We do this through internal training on anti-racism and anti-hate, through partnerships with organizations that represent marginalized populations, and through the active recruitment of members of marginalized populations for leadership positions.
