United Way Alberta Northwest ~ Kits for a Cause 

​

Being homeless is difficult when the weather is fair; the moment our temperature drops, it becomes a matter of survival. The threat of serious illness, loss of fingers or toes, or even losing one’s life become serious concerns when temperatures plunge.

​

These threats are particularly potent here in Grande Prairie and area, where winters are notoriously harsh and wind chills can be extreme.

​

Our homeless and vulnerable populations are more likely than most to experience dangerous cold-related injuries such as frostbite and hypothermia.

​

United Way Alberta Northwest is working together with local organizations to help provide essential items to those who need them most.

 

Helping people take care of their basic needs is a first and necessary step for survival during the frigid cold months.

 

Only a few button clicks can help those in our community who desperately need a helping hand –
Kits for a Cause are made possible through the generous donations of people like you.
