We provide a Christmas breakfast at the Drop In Centre, individuals and families with gift certificates from Sobey's Foods. We ask people to support the Christmas programme by donating gifts, toys and clothing for children, sponsoring a family, sharing your company's equipment and expertise, supporting our fund-raising activities or with monitary support.

Food is given to anyone who shows up with a health card.
