christmas donation drive
It was the best of times and the worst of times….
While many people have fond memories of Christmas, and look forward to celebrating the holiday, there are far too many people for whom the occasion is a lonely, cold, and forgettable event.
On December 26th, we will be hosting our annual Boxing Day Meal. But in order to provide a hot meal and holiday cheer to the homeless and vulnerable members of our community WE NEED YOUR HELP! During this festive meal we expect to serve 1,200 meals, and every donation will make a difference.
During this season of giving, can you offer a donation to help us support people that depend on the assistance that Good Shepherd offers 365 days a year?
“Christmas is joy, religious joy, an inner joy of light and peace.” —Pope Francis.
help provide A HOT christmas MEAL to people who are hungry
Going into the winter months, our supplies are low and we need YOUR help to replenish them.
Looking for ways you can help? Organize a food drive for the benefit of Good Shepherd. Grab a group of friends, family or even create a corporate or school challenge – who can collect the most non-perishable food items. To participate or to discuss a pickup or drop off, contact [email protected] or call 416.869.3619 x 229.
Make a monetary donation here, or contact [email protected] or call 416.869.3619 x 277.
Your generous gift will enable Good Shepherd to purchase supplies in bulk.
