Niagara Foundation for Family & Children's Services SUMMER CAMP - BURSARIES - YOUTH PROGRAMS
In 2015 we provided a summer camp experience to 580 local kids in need throughout the Niagara Region. Box 24028, St.

The FACS Niagara Foundation raises funds and awareness in the community to support Family & Children’s Services Niagara in their mission to protect, support and strengthen the wellbeing of children, youth and families. FACS Niagara Foundation provides opportunities and enrichments to improve the quality of life for disadvantaged children, youth and families in the Niagara Region, and give them a c

hance for a brighter future. Camp is for kids of all ages and all abilities, including t hose with special medical, physical or developmental needs. We provided bursaries to youth in foster care, or formerly in foster care, to assist with the cost of post-secondary education. The Foundation also supports programs preparing youth to live independently. The Foundation supports programs that do not receive support from Government sources. We are looking to the future with hope and excitement as we provide the simple joy of summer camp, or the life-changing opportunity of education - we now that we can make an important difference in the lives of children and youth. You can help us achieve our goal. Head Office: 82 Hannover Drive, P.O. Catharines, ON L2R 7P7

🧦❤️ Comfort, Dignity, and a Fresh Start 🧦❤️Thank you .ca for your donation of new wool socks for FACS’s youth in care! Every young person in care will received a pair of these beautiful socks when they begin living independently for the first time. Living alone can be a nerve wracking thing for young people without family to rely on. Warm socks make it a little warmer ❤️

This past Tuesday was our Home for the Holidays Family Day celebration for youth in care ❤️. When we asked what they wanted to eat, the vote was for pizza and wings! As always provided beautiful cupcakes and desserts 🧁

FACS staff appreciate these opportunities to remind our young people that they are loved and cared for by their FACS family at times of the year when families typically gather.

Our Home for the Holidays events are only made possible thanks to donor support ❤️.

Thank you to the Knight of Columbus #1652 for their recent donation! These funds will be used to purchase much-needed booster seats and car seats for our volunteer drive program. Our amazing crew of volunteer drivers lend their time to drive kids to visits with family, appointments, and camp. Kids and drivers often develop friendships, with the driver becoming another caring adult in the child’s life.

Thank you, Knights of Columbus for helping our drivers provide safe and comfortable transport for our kids ❤️

We’re looking for more volunteer drivers! Interested? Email [email protected] and we’ll connect you with the right person.

✨Thank you to the many generous individuals and companies in Niagara who donated toys and gifts this past holiday season. Over 380 children and teens had a magical day and it’s all because of you!

Your donations were dropped off to grateful families to help them create holiday magic for their kids 🎁They went to young people living on their own who would otherwise have nothing to open. And when a family of kids was brought into care on Christmas Eve…let’s just say that Santa still managed to find them 😉✨
