Giving Hope Christmas at Dixboro

Giving Hope Christmas at Dixboro

We had a great turnout for our annual Dixboro shopping event, despite the roads being icy. We provided "Slippers for Mom" with several pairs of slippers as well as a cash donation from our members.

Thank you to Brenda, the owner of Dixboro General Store, for always being so generous with our group.

Thanks also to all the volunteers who helped greet our guests, serve cookies and wine and stuck around to help clean up.

Thank you also Raeann and her special events committee. They did a great job once again supplying us with cookies, wine and water.

PORCH Brings Holiday Cheer

PORCH Brings Holiday Cheer

The PORCH program recently hosted a heartwarming holiday celebration for the senior residents of Canton Place.

In partnership with the Canton Women’s Group, 58 beautifully wrapped gift bags were distributed to residents who signed up for the party. Each bag was filled with personal care items, cozy slippers, warm blankets, and generous contributions from Tim Hortons.

The celebration was a festive potluck, with residents sharing a variety of delicious homemade dishes. The sense of community and kindness at the event was truly inspiring, as everyone came together to make the season brighter for Canton Place seniors.

Check out the photos below to see the smiles and holiday joy!
