• toiletries
• gift certificates to purchase food or other household items
• toys that brought joy to their children’s faces

Thank you to all the individuals and small businesses that made a donation for our Good Food Box Holiday Drive. Special thanks to John & Lida Samborsky along with the parish at Christ The Good Shepherd Parish at St. Michael's Ukrainian Catholic Church, as well as staff and students at Etobicoke School of the Arts.
We wish to extend our sincere gratitude once again to CP24CHUM Christmas Wish, St Vincent De Paul, Knights of Columbus (Park Lawn location), Rotary Club of Etobicoke, and to the families and staff of Lambton-Kingsway Junior Middle School for your kindness and generosity.

The report calls for a stronger focus on "upstream" health promotion and expanded access to the Community Health Centre model. You can read the full report and key messages for more information.
