Sunshine Coast Winter Appeal

Every year around this time, we reach out to those more fortunate to ask for support. We know our Coast community has an enormous capacity to give. This winter, please help support Sunshine Coast Community Services Society so we can continue to be there for the families and individuals who rely on us.

Your generous donation goes directly to supporting pregnant women and new parents, families, children, youth, adults, and seniors through the provision of crisis response, support programs, housing, and advocacy.

As well as raising funds to keep our programs running, we are also fundraising to develop long-term and sustainable solutions to help address poverty, homelessness, hunger and crime. Our Building Together development will include 34 affordable housing units, crisis response, support and prevention programs - all in one location. Resources will be accessible to all Sunshine Coast community members and will play a critical role in the health and well-being of our entire community.

Will you help us continue our work to support our most vulnerable community members by donating to our Winter Appeal?

Donate before midnight, December 31 and receive a charitable tax receipt for your 2022 return at: https://sccss.ca/get-involved/donate
