THE COMPASSION SOCIETY
HELPS ALL YEAR
SEASONAL
Spring, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Canada Day and Back to School are all great reasons to celebrate our clients and give out gifts to support that!
HOLIDAYS
Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter and Halloween are all busy times as we work to ensure families have meals, gifts and fun!
PERSONAL GROWTH
We give job seekers information and training to feel confident during interviews. We do a suit drive, to dress them for success and have many services booths that run every month to support our clients!
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR MESSAGE
"I want to be part of a community and workforce where people feel appreciated and are treated with respect and dignity. My aim is to continue the tradition of the Compassion Society being a place where clients feel supported and the volunteers and staff love coming in to help the more needy among us. Some great people at Compassion Society inspire me and I hope I live up to their high expectations."
-Aliya Khawari
FAMILIES SAY THANK YOU
"We arrived in Canada we didn't know what to do. Generosity from Compassion Society went a long way..."
"I didn't think people really cared about my problems. With Compassion Society they really did!"
"I can't thank Compassion Society enough for helping me through a really tough time and getting me back on my feet..."
"After the fire, we didn't know where to turn. Compassion Society was there for us with food and clothing."
