Giving Tuesday Street Health Toiletries Campaign
Featured RecurringFairlawn Avenue United Church 28 Fairlawn Avenue, Toronto, Toronto, CanadaGiving Tuesday is a global movement unleashing the power of “radical generosity”. It came to Canada in 2013 as a simple idea: designate a day – November 28 – that encourages people to do good. If you have any unopened travel-sized toiletries or personal hygiene products, Street Health, one of our Embrace Action partner organizations, would love to use them in their work on Indigenous Harm Reduction in Toronto this winter. Simply drop the donated items from 10:00 to10:30am before worship, in the Nook (SE sanctuary entrance).
