On Nov. 15, the Richmond Christmas Fund will be taking place in a storefront next to ICBC at Lansdowne Centre. For years, the Richmond Caring Place and Brighouse Pavilion provided a familiar, reliable home, for the Richmond Christmas Fund but shifting circumstances resulted in a need to search for a new space.
The Christmas Fund will open its doors for another holiday season and keep them open for more days and longer hours than ever before. Supported by the best team of volunteers on this side of the North Pole, Richmond Cares, Richmond Gives (RCRG) is ready to distribute thousands of grocery vouchers, toys, and gift cards to neighbours in need so they can share in the holiday spirit.
For those planning on accessing the Christmas Fund, visit rcrg.org for everything that is need to know, from eligibility criteria and required documentation, to registration and distribution times. RCRG encourages all to share the news about the Christmas Fund event with anyone they know who might need support. The Lansdowne location will only be open to the public for Christmas Fund registration and distribution. If you'd like to stop by and make a donation—whether toys or cash—please contact RCRG beforehand at 604-279-7035 or christmasadmin@rcrg.org.
RCRG is also accepting donations at the main RCRG office in the Richmond Caring Place, which is open Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., as well as online at rcrg.org.
