Holiday Program

my-project-1--1-Consider making a difference in the lives of families in Thunder Bay and the district by sponsoring an independent youth or family this holiday season.

Sponsors are matched with an independent youth or family and will receive a detailed profile form outlining their wishes. Hamper profiles are designed according to the size of each family and can range in cost. We encourage sponsors to stay within the hamper guidelines to avoid overspending. The program also encourages sponsors to wrap and label the gifts. If you are unable to wrap and label, we ask that you please include wrapping paper and tags. 

TO BECOME A SPONSOR OR FOR MORE INFORMATION CALL (807) 343-1313 OR EMAIL HOLIDAYHAMPERPROGRAM@THUNDERBAYCAS.CA
