Thank you to everyone who contributed in making Christmas Hope such a huge success this year! Through Christmas Hope’s agency partnership, we assisted 2500 adults and more than 5000 children with food hampers complete with Christmas fixings, and toy bundles for those 17 years of age and younger so they had something special under the tree on Christmas morning. The help our community provided this year went above and beyond our expectations, and we cannot thank you enough for all that you have done.

 

On behalf of Interfaith Food Bank and those we serve, thank you for your support.  We wish you and yours all the best for a happy, healthy 2022.

This Christmas, Interfaith Food Bank is partnered with Lethbridge Food Bank, The Salvation Army, Lethbridge Family Services — Angel Tree, My City Care — Shop of Wonders, and Volunteer Lethbridge to ensure every family in our community that requested assistance for Christmas got the help they need. By working together, we maximized resources and limited duplication of services. Collectively we aimed to provide for 2000 adults and 4500 children. Please join us as we work together to support our community with food, gifts and Christmas Cheer.

It’s never too late to give. Donations and assistance provided to Interfaith Food Bank over the holiday season made it possible to ensure everyone had a bright Christmas, and we sincerely thank you! But our work hasn’t ended. Families need to put food on the table every day, and we are expecting to see demand continuing to increase in the New Year. Please consider supporting our activities through 2022.
