2020 Shoebox Gift Drive for Sudbury

​Support our #VirtualShoebox Campaign!

Unfortunately, to protect the health and safety of our communities, we will not be collecting Shoeboxes this year.

We are still working hard to make sure no woman living in a shelter feels forgotten or alone this holiday season. ​But we can't do it alone!

Here's how you can help:
100% of your donation will go toward purchasing gift cards and essentials for local women impacted by homelessness.​

Sudbury Local Coordinators

My name is Tina Leduc and I'm your new Local Coordinator for Sudbury. I'm thrilled to have joined this organization in this new role! I have been involved with The Shoebox Project since 2015 as a volunteer making my own shoeboxes. As a Sudbury native, I look forward to working with others that share the common interest of helping others and look forward to collecting as many shoebox donations for women affected in our community.
I am Jeanine De Gagne and I am delighted to be one of the local co-coordinators for The Shoebox Sudbury.  Belonging to such a great organization is such a great way of giving back and serving one of the many needs in our community.  If I can help to put a smile on a face or a  moment of joy in someone's life, it warms my heart.

Our Shoeboxes go to Women Accessing the Following Agencies:

Foyer Notre Dame House 
Health Sciences North Rehabilitation Centre 
New Life Centre Cedar Place
Northern Initiative for Social Action
Sudbury Action Youth Centre 
Voices for Women 
YMCA Genevra House 

Thank you to our generous supporters!
