Leading up to the holiday season, we would like to welcome you to join us in supporting the Calgary Drop-In Centre’s ‘Warm Feet, Warm Hearts’ program. With Parkland Cares and Bonavista Cares, we want to begin collecting socks which students will later fill with various toiletries. The filled socks will be delivered to the Calgary Drop-In Centre where they will be given to their clients, thereby helping to provide them with the little necessities that we all need daily. 

 

From November 15 to 30, we are looking for help in collecting: 

• New pairs of warm socks 
• Gloves, mitts, and hats 
• packaged bars of soap 
• lip balm 
• toothbrushes 
• toothpaste 
• floss 
• travel sized shampoo 
• travel sized conditioner 
• travel sized body wash 
• travel sized lotion / hand cream 
• coffee / food vouchers 
• gift cards 
• chocolate/candies 

In early December, students will be invited to fill the socks with the collected toiletries. These socks will then be brought to the Calgary Drop-In Centre where they will be handed out to clients. We believe this is a wonderful way to give back during the holiday season and allow our Andrew Sibbald students the opportunity to highlight their empathy, kindness, and wellness outside of our building. 

 

Thank you for your generosity and support.
