Sponsor a family this Christmas!
Christmas can be a very stressful time for families on fixed or low incomes. Parents must often choose basic necessities over a Christmas meal or gifts for their children. By sponsoring a family in the YWCA housing program this holiday season, you can make their Christmas shine brighter and help give kids a Christmas morning they otherwise may not have.

Want to bring Christmas joy to a local family this year? Here's how the YWCA NWT Christmas family sponsorship program works:
-
Review the Gift Value Guidelines on this page to determine which family size suits your budget or that of your workplace or organization;
-
Email us at giving@ywcanwt.ca and let us know what family size you would like to sponsor;
-
We'll let you know the child's age, gender, if they are a single parent or 2 parent/guardian family, and a wish list (if we have received one from the family);
-
Go shopping! (or supply gift cards if that is your preference);
-
Drop off unwrapped gifts and grocery gift cards at the YWCA NWT housing office - date to be confirmed. Don't worry, we'll send you a reminder e-mail!
-
Feel great about bringing joy to a family this holiday season!
