Family & Children's Services of FL&A | Dec 09, 2015
Family & Children’s Services of Frontenac Lennox and Addington’s Tree of Hope is on track to help nearly 1,000 of the most disadvantaged people in our community (most of them kids) with toys, clothing, food and other support by Christmas. The campaign has so far helped children and families in Kingston, Napanee, Amherstview, Sharbot Lake, Northbrook, Odessa, Verona, Harrowsmith and Cloyne.
What has been requested for our families:
20% of all requests have been clothing;
10% desperately need baby cribs, car seats, strollers, children's beds and bedding; and 5% need food. With three weeks to go, here are the top priorities.
Money: We have raised only about a quarter of what we need. Money is urgently needed to buy the things our families need.
Big Ticket Items: We are desperately short of new cribs, car seats and children's beds.
Toys: We need more toys, but we're confident that we will meet our needs by Christmas. Call (613) 545-3227
