The 2022 Marpole Cares campaign has set a new fundraising record. This was the 12th year of the annual community charitable campaign, bringing together non-profit groups, small businesses, corporate sponsors and individuals in support of some of our most vulnerable local families and seniors.
This year, donations exceeded $16,000 in support of more than 160 vulnerable seniors and low-income families. The staff of Marpole Oakridge Family Place and Tapestry Church conducted 70 deliveries of hampers of food and gift cards before the Christmas holiday.
We couldn’t have done it without the support of the community and our generous donors – THANK YOU!
Here are some comments and thanks from grateful Marpolians.
