Holiday Giving

Over the Holiday Season, many in our community want to reach out to help Inn from the Cold families. Your support and caring is deeply appreciated and is a tremendous encouragement to homeless families who find this time of year very difficult. We have a number of opportunities for you to get involved — both now and throughout the year. Thank you for sharing the spirit of hope, love and generosity. Thank you for being INN.

Adopt A Family

Calgarians response to our Adopt A Family program was overwhelming and we are delighted to announce that we no longer have any families who require “Christmas adopting”. Please scroll below for other opportunities for involvement.

If you are an 2011 adopter and have questions, please download our Frequently Asked Questions. You may also email our Adopt A Family program coordinator: elizabeth@innfromthecold.org

Wish List / Book of Hope

Every day, we have children, women and men arriving at Inn from the Cold without even the basic necessities. Our Wish List and Book of Hope highlight items, large and small, that we require on an on-going basis. We invite you to review these lists and make a purchase or donation that will help make this time a bit easier for families without a place to call home.

Southcentre Gift Wrapping

Give the gift of hope by volunteering your time to help raise money for Inn from the Cold. Find out how you can give a couple hours that will make a difference. If you are out shopping, don’t forget to drop your gifts off at the Southcentre Gift Wrap station for some beautiful wrapping, with proceeds going to Inn from the Cold.
