With inflation, the housing crisis in Toronto and the buckling of our shelter system, the need to help the marginalized has never been greater. Once again, we are coming together in the Habonim kitchen once a week throughout the cold months to make sandwiches and snack bags that we will then deliver to Seeds of Hope for distribution. They do some amazing work with those living 'rough' but they are having trouble keeping up with demand. So come as much or as little as you can, but come! If you would like to help, please register. -
