Thank you to everyone who supported our Virtual Shoebox Drive in 2020! We are so grateful that we were able to provide gifts to local women impacted by homelessness during this particularly difficult time.
The drive is now over until next holiday season, but you can support our efforts all year long!
Here's how you can help in the off-season:

Jess Boulay is excited to be running the 2020 Holiday drive this year. Niagara & St. Catharines has a very strong sense of community and the support The Shoebox Project receives every year helps so many local women. This year The Shoebox Project hopes to provide gifts to ALL 339 women staying in their supported shelters this holiday.
