Hope Cottage

For the past number of years, our church has provided and delivered a meal to Hope Cottage, a drop-in shelter in Halifax.  Every two months, volunteers donate supplies or prepare a meal of sweet & sour meatballs which is a favourite with the patrons.  To help with preparing the next meal, please call the CHWUC office.
