Special Events at Centretown United Church
Christmas Hamper Project 2024
The community of Centretown Ottawa is experiencing unprecedented levels of homelessness, families who are unable to put a basic meal on the table, and most disturbing, an erosion of hope. We, as a community can make a difference. By coming together we can deliver smiles, joy and show people they are loved.
Please consider giving in any way you are able, every gift matters and all contributions are channeled directly to those in need. Your contribution, at this time of year, can literally make a world of difference. Year after year, we hear incredible stories of generosity and gratitude. We hope we can count on you to help those in need this Christmas.
The success of this project depends on many volunteers to adopt, pack, and deliver these hampers. Equally necessary are the financial donations which allow us to purchase gift cards. If you would like to help out, visit www.centretownunited.org/index.php/xmashamperproject for more detials.
