Holiday Hamper Program

As we approach this Christmas season, we have the honour and privilege of sharing the love of Christ with those who may be struggling in our community. 

Once again, we look forward to partnering with the Wilmot Family Resource Centre (WFRC) to help support their Holiday Hamper Program. What an opportunity to practically show our community that we as a church are FOR them and #FORwilmot.

This year, The Wilmot Family Resource Centre anticipates the need in our community to grow, and they are preparing to provide 200+ hampers to individuals and families in our community. Each hamper will contain age-appropriate gifts and a grocery gift card provided by sponsors as well as top-up items such as mitts, hats, socks, and other holiday comforts provided by community groups. 

Here are some ways you can get involved in this meaningful program.

If you choose to sponsor a family you will receive a list of items to purchase for a family. This is a great opportunity for a life group or family to work together to bring joy to a local family in need. You can select the size of family you would like to sponsor and then you will receive more information!

Estimated cost of sponsoring a family:

• 1-2 persons (plan to spend up to $200 total)
• 3-4 persons (plan to spend up to $400 total)
• 5+ persons (plan to spend $500 or more total) 

If you would like to proceed with this option, you can fill out the Sponsor Application form and submit it to the Wilmot Family Resource Centre, or you can contact Leanne Domm at l.domm@wilmotcentre.church.

Donations will be collected and sent to the WFRC to help purchase gift cards for grocery stores for families. In addition, they will be used to purchase gifts for any families that may still need additional items.

If you would like to give a financial donation, you can give in any of the following ways:

1. E-transfer to office@wilmotcentre.church
2. Online Giving (wilmotcentre.church/give)
3. Debit Station (located at the Connect Desk)
4. Offering boxes during Sunday services (located at the back of the auditorium)

*Any donations made should be marked for the Holiday Hamper Program.

The WFRC needs a lot of hands to count inventory, help pack boxes and do deliveries. If this is an area in which you would like to serve, you can fill out the Holiday Hamper Volunteer form. Just click on the button below.

Thanks so much for considering to share Christ’s light in this very practical way this Christmas season. Let's show our community we are FOR them by supporting families in need this Christmas.
