Safetynet Children and Youth Services

Fundraising goal: $20,000

We support financially disadvantaged families by providing essential items like gently used clothing, housewares, furniture, toiletries, and diapers, alleviating their financial burden so they can focus on other needs. Our goal is to break the cycle of poverty by offering free tutoring and music lessons, delivering both immediate relief and long-term support for a brighter future. We serve a diverse range of people, including refugees, asylum seekers, and those in the community facing economic hardships. For example, a single mother from Halton received clothes and essentials from us, allowing her to use her funds for food and housing. Today, she is self-sufficient, runs her own business, and gives her time to volunteer at Safetynet.
