In its own words
We carry out fundraising for the purchase of food items to fill christmas hampers for individuals and families in need. Hampers also include gifts for children which are obtained from 'santa's elves'. We also use funds for beautification and upkeep of our cemeteries in the parish. We have helped local schools with their lunch program. We have helped the local food bank and the crisis centre with food items or cash to purchase food.
