How You Can Help Support
West Hill Community Services & the Community
There are many opportunities for individuals
and groups to support the West Hill
Community Services through Volunteer
Work, community-based food drives, monetary donations,
or donations-in-kind (food items and new or used furniture,
clothing, etc.). You can also become a Member of the West
Hill Community Services.
Individuals or groups can get involved in a
Community-Based Food Drive,
such as those conducted by the Girl Guides or Boy Scouts,
Such food drives have proven invaluable in keeping the
West Hill Community Services Food Bank shelves well-stocked.
Food Drives can consist of collection of a variety of non-perishable
items such as powdered milk, cereal, peanut butter, tuna fish,
macaroni and cheese, as well as baby food and diapers. You
can also collect personal care items like shampoo and soap,
which are always in demand. Please contact our Social Support
Manager at 416-286-2441 if you are planning to conduct a Food
Drive project.
Monetary donations
are used to enrich and enhance present programming or to
help implement needed programming. For example, your donation
may go towards the purchase of new toys at the Family Resource
Centre, towards the purchase of a new stove for a Community
Cooking program, or towards the hire of a bus to bring young
children from less fortunate families or a group of senior
citizens on a field trip. Donors can designate donations to
a particular program if they wish.
West Hill Community Services is registered with
Canadahelps.org., a non-profit, secure online donation
site that serves many Canadian charities. Just click above
