As the holiday season approaches, there is an opportunity to assist people in our community who may not be able to afford the extras that many of us enjoy during the holiday season. Rural Frontenac Community Services in partnership with the Salvation Army Mississippi-Rideau Lakes Corps offer a Christmas Program for individuals and families in Rural Frontenac.
In the past, the program has included all the fixings for a Christmas meal with some special extras. This year, the program will replace the food with a food voucher.
If you would like to support the Christmas Hamper Program and assist an individual or family this Christmas, your donation will go directly to help someone in our community.
Donations of any size can be made to the Salvation Army Mississippi-Rideau Lakes Corps. Donations can be dropped off to Rural Frontenac Community Services or you can send your donation directly to the Salvation Army Mississippi-Rideau Lakes Corps. For more information on how to donate, call Joyce at 613-279-3151.
Staff of Rural Frontenac Community Services will begin accepting applications on October 2, 2023 for the Christmas Program from residents in Central, North and parts of South Frontenac.
If you want to apply, please call 279-3151 between 8:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Monday to Friday to complete an application. Please note the deadline for applying is November 30, 2023.
