Welcome to our first ever YWCA Niagara Region Food Drive! This week-long event was designed so that the people in our community could donate their time, resources, and food to the others in our community who may need the extra support while going through troubling times. During the time frame of August 19th-August 25th 2022, please consider dropping off your non-perishables at the following locations so that the women, children, and families in the Niagara Region do not have to worry about where their next meal is coming from.
