Christmas Sharing Program
Family and Community Support Services will be providing a new Christmas Sharing Program (formerly called Christmas Hampers) in the Central Peace region. We will not be collecting food items to fill boxes. Instead, we will provide, upon receiving application forms, coupons to purchase whatever the clients deem a priority, at participating grocery stores, drug store, giftware, hairdressers, and hardware stores throughout the Central Peace region. A list of businesses will be on the back of the coupons. This program design empowers them to make their own choices.
Applications can be picked up at Town of Spirit River, Village of Rycroft, MD of Spirit River 133, Birch Hill County, SRRA, St Maries, Rycroft school, and the Spirit River and Rycroft Libraries.
All applications are due at FCSS Office by Dec 6th, 2024.
Our local businesses, who have agreed to participate in this program, will be accepting these coupons from Dec 16, 2024, to Jan 17, 2025. In shopping locally, you are supporting our businesses. Some restrictions will apply.
Santa for Kids and Santa for Seniors will continue as per previous years.
If you have any questions about the program call FCSS at 780-864-3500 Ext. 206.
If you are aware of families in need, with their permission, please feel free to call and submit their name, telephone number and family size.
All information will be handled confidentially.
