Fundraising Events:
Food Drive: Providing the shelter with food that may be used throughout the year is a valuable contribution. You may choose to donate gift certificates for groceries stores. This allows Yellow Brick House to purchase items that best suit the health and cultural needs of clients, and they are easy to transport.
Gifts for Women: You may choose to collect spare change from class members and purchase individual gifts for women. This enables women without families to be remembered in the Holiday Season or to allow children to give gifts to their moms for the holiday season, Mother’s Day, etc.
Gifts in Lieu: In the past, donors have made financial donations in lieu of gifts to friends, family or their child’s teacher. Instead of asking for birthday, graduation, bar/bat mitzvah gifts, etc., you can ask family and friends to make a donation to Yellow Brick House. Yellow Brick House provides cards and letters stating that a donation has been received and from whom. You can arrange this over the phone by calling us during Monday to Friday, 9:00am to 4:30pm at 905-727-0930,ext: 2233.
