“No words to say thank you, Village of Hope Niagara. Hugs and tears of relief knowing you were here for our family when we had no where to turn. Food and clothing is what you provided but HOPE was appreciated.”

Be The Difference this year,
for our neighbours in need

Did you know?

Our Lincoln neighbours in need are facing the most difficult season of all. Without sufficient incomes or supports, many will remain food and shelter insecure. While all around are greeting the new year with joy our neighbours may only know anxiety and despair, with futures uncertain. We’re working throughout the year to see that our neighbours too can feel hope and find joy with their children, parents, and partners.

In our community of Lincoln, as many as 1 in 6 among our neighbours, are going hungry a part of each month. With food costs up by 9.7 per cent, and shelter costs up by 7.4 per cent, seniors, children, and their families in our community are dramatically affected. Food insecurity, not having enough money to buy food - is a serious public health problem in Ontario; 16.7% of households in Ontario are food insecure; 63% of households who are food insecure have employment as their main income; 59% of households receiving social assistance are food insecure.

“Village of Hope Niagara changed my family's life, with an eviction notice looming, they spent hours at our house budgeting and getting us on track. Assisting us with rent, and food in the fridge we now feel positive about our future. Thank you for going way over and above.”

Make It Monthly - You can make a very large impact in our community with a small monthly donation, and our page makes that very simple… Donate – When made monthly, 50 cents a day, a dollar a day or what you're able to donate, sustains our programs and enables us to assist Lincoln families through difficult times. We're the bridge that keeps their lights on, keeps them in their shelter, and with food in their fridge. Join our High Hopes club as a monthly donor, and help us help our neighbours.

"Thank you Village of Hope Niagara, never did I ever imagine I would be asking for help after being the donor last year. Can't imagine our town if VoHN was not in it. Thank you for all you do."

"Thank you Village of Hope, for taking the time to come to my house and deliver food to Beamsville. With 3 young children, no car, and husband gone, I felt so deflated till I called you. So so thankful our Community has Village of Hope."

"Thank you Village of Hope Niagara, for caring, and going over and above to help me and my children."
