245 Wish Lists – Help us find the people who can adopt a family this Christmas
To date, The Outreach Centre has received 245 wish lists for children through our Adopt-A-Family program.
It’s a difficult time of year for many.
The Outreach Centre provides assistance throughout the year to families when they are most in need. With a focus on the Christmas season, the program takes care of single parent families who are struggling and require extra help to provide for their family. Annually, sponsors in the community, through the Adopt-A-Family program, have shared the spirit of Christmas with families in Central Alberta by providing gifts under the tree, special treats and a holiday meal to share.
We welcome the support of our community in sharing with those less fortunate. There are a few ways you can help support those in need. Please visit our website for considerations.

Smiles Thru Lindsey reaching out with a new video message and urging Albertans to look out for each other at this challenging time
The holiday season is well behind us, we’re heading into the coldest part of the winter, and although the days are starting to grow longer there’s still a definite lack of daylight in our lives. Â The winter blues are a real thing and this year we have COVID, a whole new serious problem to add to our mental health issues.
COVID is also the reason the Smiles Thru Lindsey team has not been able do public events for many months.  Unable to reach out physically through school visits and fund raisers, Smiles Thru Lindsey is reminding Central Albertans to check in on each other.  Also, please follow the Smiles Thru Lindsey Facebook page .  They’ll lead you to the resources you or your loved ones need right away.
Meet Lindsey and the Smiles Thru Lindsey team in this powerful video. Â …And remember to check in on the people in your life.
