Annual food drive

For 135 years the Salvation Army has helped countless families in Smiths Falls and surrounding area with their Christmas Kettle campaign. You can make a difference in someone's life by donating a minimum of two hours of your time to man a kettle. Student volunteers welcome and and this donation of time DOES qualify for community service hours required to receive a high school diploma. If you are able to volunteer please contact Jackie at 613.284.6713.

Join the Chatham Kent Women's Centre board, staff, and volunteers on November 1, 2018 at 5:00 pm in the parking lot at 20 Sandys St., Chatham for the lighting of our Christmas tree to kick off our Shine the Light Campaign. Reception and light refreshments to follow.

The goal of the Shine the Light on Woman Abuse campaign is to raise awareness of men's violence against women by turning communities purple for the month of November. Purple is a symbol of courage, survival and honour, and has to come to symbolize the fight to end woman abuse.

The Build a Mountain tour will be in Smiths Falls on Saturday November 24 from 9am-4pm at Andress' YIG; Food Basics, The Garden Market and Giant Tiger. This is your chance to fill the shelves of the Smiths Falls Community Food Bank in advance of the high demand Christmas season. Cash donations also welcome. Presented as a community service by the Hinton Auto Group.
