Here are the details of our 2nd Annual Beat the Heat Campaign.
Barrie Families Unite seeks to help re-purpose gently used A/C units (both window and portable) and fans to households that have an individual with a medical condition that is excerbated by extreme heat.
If you have a unit to donate to our cause, please reach out. If you need help to ‘Beat the Heat’, please fill out our online form.
Our 2021 Summer Clothing Campaign was a HUGE success and saw BFU help outfit approximately 250 individuals in our community with a fantastic selection of summer clothing. Not to mention diverting thousands of pounds of perfectly good textiles from our landfills!
Estimated costs to purchase the clothing that was donated to these individuals was $80,000 (using Walmart.ca price comparisons).
BFU hosted 2 FREE Pop Up shops last Nov/Dec where we welcomed over 250 families to come in and shop for their winter outerwear household needs! It was a great success.
Late August of 2020 we received news that our children would be returning to in-class learning for school, with mandatory masks. BFU jumped in and helped facilitate the distribution of over 500 free child sized masks to families in need.
