Who We AreWe are Giving from our Hearts. We are a volunteer
driven group of people reaching out to help our neighbours. We fund raise to fund soup kitchens, food banks and community based initiatives. We collect food and clothing, baby items, school supplies, crafting items ect to give to our neighbours and fund raise the money to get it all to them. We raise funds by hosting Bud, Spud and Steak dinner, yard/bake sales, Home crafted chocolate sales, Burger and a Beer and calendar sales. We are always looking for new ways to fund raise. |
Our History Our Facebook group Helping our Northern Neighbours-Winnipeg and Eastern Manitoba was our first direct connection to the plight of our northern neighbours. Something we knew we needed to help alleviate. We started by collecting food and clothing to ship north. We sponsor many families in the north and try to help their food banks. We love the personal touch of shipping boxes north but the reality is that by working with the communities to purchase food from their local businesses we are creating a far larger ripple effect of help in their communities. We still ship some boxes to families and food banks but we like to purchase the food locally to donate. These are very small things compared to the great need in the north.
