We need your help, Port Alberni, to fill our Holiday Stockings
The nights are getting colder, and the staff at Sage Haven Society’s Drop-In centre are working hard to plan and prepare for our annual Holiday Stocking Drive. Through our Drop-in Centre, we extend support to women, youth, and men in the Alberni Valley, and this holiday season, we’re looking for specific items to fill our stockings.
The holiday spirit is all about giving, and we’re on a mission to make this festive season memorable for those accessing our programs and services. Our Holiday Stocking Drive is an opportunity to share joy, warmth, and the spirit of community with those in need locally in the Alberni Valley.
