The wellbeing of the church has always been tied up with the wellbeing of the wider community. But in these times of crisis, there is even more reason to be thinking about contributing to organizations that are actively working for this wellbeing.
Greenest City continues its Emergency Good Food Box program and is delivering 200 healthy food boxes to those in need.
The Dale Ministries is providing 2 weekly takeout meals, as they observe social distancing. They are serving about 150 people a week.
The Parkdale Neighbourhood Land Trust prepares and distributes cleaning and disinfecting kits to rooming house tenants in the neighbourhood.
Parkdale Community Legal Services also continues to offer essential services.
The Parkdale Solidarity Fund is a local mutual aid network supported by many local partners.
