The Amherstburg Food and Fellowship Mission is asking you to partner with us to make Christmas 2024 a little brighter for the less fortunate in our community. We have all seen the impact of inflation in the cost of groceries and necessities and this year is going to be especially difficult, as a result.
In 2023 the Mission served more than 18,772 hot meals, provided 800 emergency food baskets and supported young families with much needed supplies such as baby food, formula, diapers and clothing. Unfortunately, the need continues to grow but the Mission is committed to providing a safe, uplifting place for people to go on a daily basis to receive help when needed.
We operate with a team of approximately 50 unpaid volunteers who do it all from shopping, cooking, cleaning, office work, bookkeeping, yardwork, building repairs, fundraising, and so much more. It is important to everyone at the Mission to make every Christmas special so your support is key to our success. Please consider adopting a family this Christmas, providing a gift for the children or making a donation so that we can provide them with an excellent holiday meal. Our volunteers would be happy to work with you to make this happen!
We absolutely rely on your help to make this possible and thank our many faithful supporters and community partners, who give generously throughout the year.
Donations can be mailed or dropped off at 298 Victoria St. S. in Amherstburg or by visiting www.aburgmission.ca and clicking the “Donate Now” button. You can also e-transfer to aburgmission@yahoo.com and request a tax receipt in the notes.
We thank you for all donations, big or small. Your contributions directly impact our community by uplifting the most vulnerable and improving their quality of life.
Charitable receipts will be issued upon request.
