It's like Christmas day to us! One of the biggest days of the year for our food bank, the Welland Food Drive is critical. This Saturday, please plan to put food by your front door by 10:00am. Also, we still need volunteers!
“I’m never leaving!” That’s what Brooke said about her new apartment, so thankful to have it after years of struggling.
We want to make sure every child in Welland and the surrounding area has warm, dry feet this winter.
We know it is tough to find work and even harder if no one gives you the opportunity.
In August 2018, 803 people used our food bank services. 35% were children under 18, 3% were seniors over 65, the rest were adults 18-64. On our busiest day, we gave food to 73 people.
The first Executive Director of Open Arms Mission, hired in early 1987, passed away on Saturday. We are happy to carry on his legacy.
Thank you to everyone who donated and to Giant Tiger for making the program possible. We helped a record number of kids.
The CampusFest fundraiser for Open Arms Mission is this Saturday, August 11. Join us for a great day of family fun for a great cause!
For the whole month of August, we are giving out backpacks with school supplies to elementary school aged children in need in the Welland, Pelham and Wainfleet area
