Bloordale Winter Warmer Fundraiser

By Anatomica | November 15, 2017
 

As the colder weather sets in, we are acutely aware that there are many members of our community that need support. We’re collecting donations over the next few weeks to put together care packages for #Bloordale residents in need, and we’re urging other local businesses to join us in fundraising.

 

Our goal is to fill 150 stockings with essential winter and personal care items, which we will distribute on December 20th, 2017,  to each attendee at that week’s community dinner hosted by the Bloor Lansdowne Fellowship Centre*.

At a cost of approximately $30 per stocking, we will be able to include:

  • Winter hats and gloves
  • Socks and underwear
  • Toothbrushes and toothpaste
  • A towel, soap, and shampoo
  • Razors, deodorant, and toilet paper

Please consider adding a $2, $5, or $10 dollar donation at your next appointment, to help support financially insecure and homeless members of our community. 100% of the funds we collect will go to filling care packages with essential items. As always, our heath care providers and therapists will decline any offered gratuities, but if you’re feeling generous after your massage appointment, our front desk staff will collect your donation.  If you don’t have an appointment scheduled, you may also donate online through Pay Pal by following this link:

 

HELP SPREAD THE WORD! If you are unable to contribute directly to the fundraiser, please help us reach our goal by letting your friends, clients, customers, and neighbours know about the initiative, including how they can donate! Thank you for helping us give back to our community this holiday season. Every bit helps!

 

 

*This is an initiative by the staff at Anatomica and local Bloordale business owners.  We are not affiliated with the BLCF, but we respect the work they do.  With the support of members of our neighbourhood like you, we can build a stronger community together!
