Outreach
As the colder months approach, it's crucial to support those in need by donating essential items such as fall and winter clothing, sleeping bags, blankets, and toiletries. These donations can make a significant difference for individuals facing homelessness or financial hardships, providing warmth and comfort during the harsh weather. Consider contributing gently used or new coats, hats, scarves, gloves, and thermal wear. Sleeping bags and blankets are vital for warmth, while toiletries like soap, toothpaste, and sanitary products ensure basic hygiene needs are met. Your generosity can bring relief and hope to many during these challenging times, fostering a sense of community and care.
The collection box will be at the back of the church. Anything you can donate to help with this would be greatly appreciated.
If you wish to donate and cannot get it to the church please call Pat Taylor at 905-960-5911 and I will make arrangements to pick up.
