Happy New Year! 2025 was a year filled with generosity and neighbourly kindness. Thank you, friends!
Thank you to all our Parkland and Bonavista neighbours. Our Warm Feet, Warm Hearts Initiative prepared 243 care kits for The Calgary Drop-In Centre. Parkland Cares had five teams participate in putting together Senior Secret Santa gifts packages. Assembling some beautiful boxes of cheer for local seniors. We adopted three local families with extreme financial and food security needs. In addition, we once again delivered $1,010 in grocery gift cards to Wilma Hansen Jr. High and Deer Run Elementary. The schools ensured that the cards reached families experiencing food insecurity during the holidays.
Upcoming Events:
• January to March: Tea and Conversation. In the winter months ahead, set aside an hour to share your time with a senior neighbour who may be alone or may be the primary caregiver for their partner. Make connections, conversations, and push back against senior loneliness.
• April: Birthday Bags for the Calgary Food Bank
• May: Collecting for Basically Babies: Outfitting Newborns in Need
Parkland Cares is incredibly thankful for the continued support of our wonderful community.
Keep posted for upcoming information about new initiatives.
