#GivingTuesday

Join GivingTuesday, the world’s largest generosity movement. Everyone has something to give and every act of generosity counts.

We are starting to plan for GivingTuedsay - Tuesday November 28th. 

There are three different charities that we are supporting.

  1. Hats and mitts that will be donated to Good Shepherd in downtown Hamilton.
  2. Cash donations or Walmart gift cards that will be divided between Ancaster Community Services and CityKidz.
