Welcome Centre Food & Clothing Bank

The Welcome Centre – Food and Clothing Bank serves individuals and families with the love of Jesus Christ through practical help such as food, clothing, counseling, and referrals, bringing hope and restoration to their lives.

SERVICES PROVIDED

Our services meet the needs of men, women, children and entire families. While some families have temporarily fallen on hard times, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, others face the many challenges of beginning a new life in Canada.

Clients from more than 130 countries have visited us for help. Women and families from Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Portugal, China, Ukraine, Colombia, Jamaica, Italy, Mexico and Russia have all found their way to the Mission.

We interview individuals and families to assess their situation and see how we can best be of service.
