Safetynet Children & Youth Charities was founded by Bill Shields in 2007 and services families with clothing, household items, and extra-curricular activities. They rely on community donations to provide free items and services to financially disadvantaged families. Fans will be able to donate new and gently used clothing and volunteers from Safetynet will be on site to collect monetary donations and provide more information to fans about their charity. Items that are most in need are men’s, women’s, and children’s regular and thermal underwear, socks, winter coats and boots, and seasonal (winter) clothing. Fans are asked to bring items in a large reusable cloth bag (or a garbage bag). For more information on Safetynet Children & Youth Charities, please visit https://www.safetynetservices.ca/.
Food4Kids: November 19th
The Food4Kids program launched in Hamilton, Ontario, and extended into Halton in 2013. The program is for participants 3-14 years old, attending elementary school in Halton. Children are referred to Food4Kids by schools aware of families with limited access to food in their homes. The program aims to be discreet and non-stigmatizing for the children and families participating. Because of the specific nature of Food4Kids Halton, we ask that fans donate nut free granola bars and regular sized cans of condensed soup (chicken noodle, tomato, and vegetable). Volunteers will also be onsite to collect monetary donations and provide more information to fans. For more information, please visit https://www.food4kidshalton.ca/.
