Our Impact

The work Linking Hope does is paramount to our communities and especially in a time where people are struggling to meet their most basic needs.

Ayn Wilcox, Executive Director, Klinic Community Health

Through her group’s work, Linking Hope has collected, sorted, and delivered substantial donations of clothing, personal hygiene products, and self-care items to over 25 resource and community centres in Winnipeg, ensuring that hundreds of individuals receive essential support each month. Linking Hope’s commitment goes beyond simple acts of charity; they have effectively established and managed a system that directly benefits the most vulnerable members of our community. Their tireless efforts have made a significant impact on our ability to serve those in need and have undoubtedly improved the quality of life for many.

Rhonda Elias-Penner, Executive Director, Thrive Community Support Circle

We have been the recipient of Linking Hope’s donations several times and it is an invaluable support for us. We do not have the capacity to make the connections and get the donations, but we DO have the means to distribute to those who most need the items. We very much support the ongoing formalization of Linking Hope.

Cynthia Drebot, Executive Director, North End Women’s Centre

Because of your support, our staff have distributed hundreds of articles of clothing and pairs of shoes to First Nations families who were impacted by wildfire evacuations. Such support has been particularly impactful for larger families with 5 or more children, who otherwise wouldn’t have the means to purchase clothing or shoes for their families and who

experienced extended stays in the City of Winnipeg.
