This year, the need is higher than ever. Our phones are ringing off the hook with calls from desperate mothers looking for snowsuits for their babies and children. This situation has reached a crisis level.

Helen Harakas
Executive Director, Windfall

PLEASE HELP US MAKE SURE THAT ALL CHILDREN IN OUR CITY HAVE PROPER WINTER COATS, HATS, MITTS, BOOTS AND SCARVES THIS WINTER. YOUR DONATIONS WILL HELP US PURCHASE DESPERATELY NEEDED WINTER COATS AND ACCESSORIES FOR CHILDREN WHO HAVE NOTHING. EVERY DOLLAR DONATED PROVIDES $28 WORTH OF WINTER BASICS FOR KIDS IN NEED.

All the time, children come into our Centre with coats that should be in the garbage. Their snowsuits and coats are ripped, dirty, old, the wrong size and not warm enough. The children get frostbite on their hands and faces. They desperately need coats, hats, mitts, boots and scarves. So many are recent immigrants and refugees – they have nothing.
