Many years ago Connie got the idea that she wanted to do something for those less fortunate. She decided to reach out to friends and start a collection of clothes and other items that could be put to good use at Shepherds of Good Hope. She didn't realize when she started that this would become a yearly tradition contributed to by everyone on her street and in her book club. Today Connie came in with all of the stuff she had collected last year and we got to thank her for helping to make a big difference. What is an old sweatshirt to one person, can become a prized possession for someone else or something to help our staff engage with Ottawa's most vulnerable men and women. Through this yearly act of kindness, Connie and her friends have impacted hundreds of people and we are very grateful for all their support. Thank You!
