CHRISTMAS BASKET ROUND UP 2019: Treasurer Trevor Smith reports that over $1800 has been raised for the Christmas Baskets Fund. Coordinator for the Christmas Baskets, Darlene Scott tells us “In the end we did 6 baskets. Each basket received a generous amount of non-perishable goods, a turkey or a ham, carrot, potatoes, clementines and a dozen eggs along with a few small gifts, socks etc.. Some of our renters were invited to bring in non-perishables also and their response was heart-warming. Each family will receive either a $125 gift card to Wal-Mart or $125 cash. Money was also used to by the perishable items. Any money left over will be split between Dorval Community Aid and CAC in the New Year. Photo – R Harrison.
The Church of All Saints by the Lake supports Christian Action Chrétienne and Dorval Community Aid year ‘round with donations of non-perishable food items. Items may be left in the little brown wagon in the front entrance of the church.
Christian Action Chrétienne helps those with financial need with food, and vouchers for residents in the West Island. Donations from All Saints by the Lake are taken to St John United Church in Pointe-Claire where CAC is located.
Dorval Community Aid is located in the Sarto Desnoyers Community Centre. DCA provides a variety of services for Dorval residents including a food bank for those in need. http://www.ville.dorval.qc.ca/en/community/page/community-aid
