“Thank you to Village of Hope for helping my family get through 2023, without you I’m sure we would have been homeless. Now we have a home and so much Hope that 2024 is our year. Bless you all.”
“ Thank you to everyone at Village of Hope Niagara, as a Dad of 3 young children, with a loving wife. It was devastating to walk into your charity and admit we hadn't eaten anything for over a day. I hardly got the words out and Cheryl and her volunteers was taking us to the food room. We went from feeling like failures, deflated to having hope that someone cares.”
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.
