📊 THE NUMBERS THAT WILL BREAK YOUR HEART 📊

273 families in Niagara are in crisis RIGHT NOW

That's:
😰 Over 800 people without adequate winter clothing
🥶 Hundreds of children going to school cold
💔 Families choosing between heat and food EVERY DAY

But here's what ONE DONATION does:

❄️ 1 winter coat = 1 child stays warm ALL WINTER
🛏️ 1 blanket = someone sleeps through the night
🍳 1 set of pots = a family can cook hot meals
🧸 1 toy = a traumatized child finds joy again

YOU have the power to change these statistics.
