Volunteer
information
Volunteers enable us to provide high quality programs. Without their time and
effort we would not be able to do as much as we do. Volunteers have the opportunity
of working in a variety of programs or in our main office. If you enjoy working
with families and children and helping others in your community, become part
of our team today! Contact Zohra Roman at 416 499 3377 ext 15.
Seasonal
Hampers
Working closely with local schools and businesses, Better Beginnings NOW CAPC
provides hampers to families in need, during the December holiday season. It
is usually during this wintry holiday season that our families need the most
help. With your support, this year, as we did last year, the hamper program
will provide many families who desperately need help with simple things like
food and clothing and toys for children who often don’t have any. Last year
we were able to supply hampers to over 200 families in need and while this goal
is highly impressive, we have many more families who would benefit from this
Hamper program.
If you wish to provide
a hamper for a needy family this year, please remember that everything you give
is appreciated and needed and most of all that you have the chance to make a
difference in someone else’s life simply by giving a few of the things that
most of us take for granted. For more Information contact Halima Mubaligh at
extension 16.

Multicultural Event
Every year, in June, we have celebrated the diversity of the community we serve
through an annual multicultural event. Over the years, an increasing number
of community residents and agencies have participated in this event. In the
last few years, we have had over 1000 participants at the event, which includes
information tables, children’s activities, story telling and presentations from
local residents, “Gun Play No Way” (an event by the Toronto Police Services
to exchange toy and replica hand guns for a free gift), a reading tent, and
many more activities. A healthy lunch is also provided to all who attend. Local
businesses support us with donations for raffles and item to give to families.
Contact Candice Wilson at extension 11.
Sponsor
a Program
All of our programs and services are free of charge to the participants but
are costly to maintain, it is our hope that by connecting with organizations
like yours, our programs will be better able to help the “at risk” population
in Toronto. By joining our Adopt a Program Campaign you will be helping keep
relevant programs open to those who need them the most. We are asking you to
consider a yearly commitment to either a program you feel strongly about or
to a general fund, which will be used for all our programs. This could be a
great teambuilding program if you get your employees involved, through employee
fundraising drives, payroll deduction plans or friendly departmental competitions.
The children you will be helping today will grow into the valuable employees
of tomorrow. If you would like to make a financial commitment to our Adopt a
Program campaign, a one time donation or if you require further information
please contact Debbie Tibando at extension 12.
