Food Insecurity Fundraiser 2022

A Message From Your Cabbagetown Associations

 

Dear Neighbour,

Last winter we launched a fundraiser and the Cabbagetown community stepped up BIG TIME! Together we raised over $13,000 to help Dixon Hall tackle neighbourhood food insecurity.

One year later, the issue remains very much front and centre. In response, the Residents’ Associations across Cabbagetown, along with the Cabbagetown Preservation Association, are re-launching this  fundraising initiative.

The Neighbours Helping Neighbours campaign asks our generous and caring community to help us raise much needed funds.

Dixon Hall, is a neighbourhood services provider located in the heart of Cabbagetown. They manage most of our local rooming houses and have done much to improve the lives of tenants. They also serve clients in supported housing across St. Jamestown, Regent Park and other areas in the Downtown East.

By directing donations to the Dixon Hall fundraising platform we can ensure all the monies raised get used for front line support services, plus tax receipts can be issued for donations of $10 and over. 

 

DONATE TO ‘NEIGHBOURS HELPING NEIGHBOURS’

Please select “Food Insecurity” in the ‘Donation Designation’ field and add “2022 Fundraiser” in the Tribute box, to ensure your donation is directed to this cause. 

 

Thank you for your support. Together we can ensure that all members of our community have regular access to healthy, nutritious food.

Sincerely,

Victoria Hadden – Chair AARG
Dee Lewis – President WPRA
Karen Marren – President CSRA
Gale Moore – Chair CPA
Sean O’Donovan
– Acting Chair CRA

I have made a donation in support of the Food Insecurity Program, in memory of my late Brother, Claude Skinner, who received the benefits and care of support workers, staff and volunteers at Dixon Hall.

Thank you for bringing our attention to this ongoing need. We have last year, and will again. Thank you to our community for caring.
