The Basic Needs program has been developed in order to help support vulnerable children, youth and families.
We recognize there are various examples of social determinants in families who are struggling, such as needs to access Mental Health, Family Violence victims, risks towards housing & food security, etc.
Many families in our community are struggling to make ends meet. These basic needs supports are available to any individual we provide services to, and is seeking help with meeting their basic needs, such as hygiene products, grocery, and sometimes even paying rent.
We will use donated funds to provide groceries, baby items, clothing, transportation services, help pay bills, and more.
There are multiple ways to help our program.
