Did you have to CHOOSE
between
FOOD and RENT
this month?
Because your neighbour may have…

While we want to find the perfect gift for that special someone, our neighbour needs to make sure their child has any gift at all.
While we want to trim our Christmas tree exactly right, our neighbour needs to pay their heating bill.
We’re often bombarded by conflicting images at Christmas.
We see Hallmark movies full of twinkling lights and Christmas romance…
But we can turn a corner in our hometown to see a person huddled in blankets in a vain attempt to keep out the cold.
Whether it’s:
♥ our next-door neighbour,
♥ the neighbour seated beside you on the bus, or
♥ the neighbour who is downtown in the cold,
our neighbours can be facing a Christmas wanting food, shelter, or family.
YOU can provide joy and comfort to your neighbour this Christmas.
YOU can make a difference in the lives of those neighbours less fortunate.
Streets Alive Mission provides meals, food hampers, and clothing to any who need it.
We provide housing to those in recovery, as well as relationship for the lonely and broken among us.
YOU can help us provide those things.
Please consider giving today.
