Thank you to everyone who joined our Advent journey by donating to the the United Church of Canada’s Gifts with Vision program by providing funds for Food for the North and Aid Displaced Persons.
Together we raised $2,580.00!
Aid Displaced Persons
Displaced persons around the world face untold suffering and need. On average, one person flees their home every two seconds because of war, persecution, starvation, or climate disasters. In 2022, 108.4 million people worldwide were displaced, and this number shows no signs of declining. Food, shelter, education and training, health care, and other vital programs for displaced persons are more necessary than they have ever been. The United Church’s partners in Africa, the Middle East, and South America provide care and support to people who have had to leave everything behind.
Your gift will provide vital food, shelter, and education for the growing number of people around the world who have had to flee their homes.
Food For The North
Food prices continue to rise steeply because of inflation and worldwide supply chain disruptions. In the fly-in communities of the Far North, already high food prices are going even higher. Everyone has a right to have enough nourishing food for themselves and their families. Help people in the Far North access the food they need.
Your gift will buy grocery cards for a family in the Far North.
Thank you for your support!
