The holiday season is a time of joy, love, and giving, but for those struggling with food insecurity and homelessness, it can also be a time of added stress and hardship. At The Compass Food Bank & Outreach Centre, our “Spread The Joy” Christmas campaign aims to ease that burden by raising $130,000 this year to bring relief and joy to families and individuals in our community.
Last year, thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we provided 1,290 households with Walmart Gift Cards allowing our clients the dignity of choosing the food they place on their holiday table and the gifts they give their children. This simple gift of choice can make a world of difference, allowing families to create cherished holiday memories.
We invite you to join us in spreading joy this season. Please consider making a financial donation to help us meet our goal. Together, we can bring hope, dignity, and joy to those who need it most.
Ensure our clients have the power to celebrate the holidays in their own way, without the stress of having to make impossible choices. A tax receipt will be provided for monetary donations of $20 or more.
We are a food bank and community outreach centre located in and serving South Mississauga within the postal codes L5E, L5G, L5H and L5J.
