Which precious items would you grab for you and your family if you were forced to flee your home in order to stay alive?

It seems like an impossible circumstance, however this became a very real reality for our friends in Ukraine.

Over 8 million Ukrainians have fled their home, becoming refugees overnight. Being a refugee however is not an identity, it is a situation; a terrible and harrowing situation that could happen to any one of us. May we remind ourselves of this and open our hearts as we continue to support our neighbours and friends through this crisis.

As we begin to welcome these families into our community, we kindly ask for you to help us with NEW and essential items that sadly, these children are currently going without.

We are also helping families celebrate their childrens birthdays by providing them with new toys and goodies for a Birthday Tea including a cake. Afterall, what is a birthday without cake?!

NEW ITEMS ONLY PLEASE this allows us to distribute them as quickly as possible.
