🎄 A full table. A warm meal. A little hope.
For neighbours facing food insecurity, these simple things can mean everything.

In 2025, The Salvation Army Mount Arrowsmith provided:
❤️ Over 900 Christmas hampers to individuals and families
❤️ 9,000 Food Bank visits
❤️ 16,000 served by our Soup Kitchen
Behind every number is someone in our community who needed support.

This Christmas, help us keep that support going. All proceeds from our Christmas Kettle campaign go directly to our Food Bank and Soup Kitchen, helping people in Parksville and the surrounding communities.

🎁 Give what you can:
https://donate.salvationarmy.ca/p2p/site/5bSd5/page/ZZSrdY

Every donation matters. Every share helps us reach someone who can make a difference. ❤️

Share Christmas Share Hope
The need in our community has changed. Families are working and still falling behind. Seniors are stretching pensions that no longer cover the basics. Christmas adds pressure to budgets already at their limit.

These are our neighbours in the Oceanside area.

Your donation to The Salvation Army Mount Arrowsmith Food Bank helps provide nutritious food and Christmas hampers, giving local families and seniors one less worry—and a reminder that they are not alone.

All your donations will stay local, supporting people in our Oceanside community.

When our community gives, people eat. Families find support. Seniors keep their dignity.

Click Donate to bring food, comfort, and hope to a neighbour this Christmas.
