From Your Heart To Their Home
DOUBLE your impact with a matching gift from Assiniboine Credit Union!
During the holiday season, the community at DASCH treasures how this time of year brings us together, united in the spirit of hope, support, and love.
We see this sense of community in every corner of DASCH, and the homes of the people we support are at the heart of it all.
A home supported by DASCH is a home just like yours – a place where people unwind, visit with their loved ones, share meals, and create family among friends.
“My favourite thing about my home is the freedom.”
– Jeff
The incredible youth and adults supported by DASCH live in fifty-eight homes across Winnipeg, engage in interest-based day programs, explore vocational and employment opportunities, and discover diverse cultural experiences.
This holiday season, we are reaching out to you for support so we can continue to guarantee a warm and welcoming community of inclusion for everyone who calls DASCH home.
Give before the end of the year and your gift will be generously matched by Assiniboine Credit Union!
How will your gift make an impact?
Create and Decorate
Your gift of $50.00 will help to upgrade furniture, improve lighting, and add personal touches that make each house feel like a home.
Pass Along Cultural Celebrations
Your gift of $100 provides passes to Folklorama, Festival du Voyageur and other cultural experiences which help foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of the world for the people we support.
Empower Independence
Your gift of $250 will help fund essential modifications like ramps, wider doorways, and grab bars, ensuring that the seniors we support can live safely and as independently as possible in their homes.
Hub of the Home
Your gift of $500.00 will enable significant improvements that enhance the daily lives of the people in DASCH homes. More than just appearances, these upgrades create functional spaces promoting independence and well-being.
Last year, one of the many projects your gifts made possible was the transformation of a home’s backyard for residents and support staff to enjoy together and take pride in.
The project included rebuilding the patio, getting rid of cracked stones that made it challenging for one of the residents to use with his walker, a new firepit to roast marshmallows and hot dogs, and garden boxes accessible for all the residents to participate in growing plants and produce.
“I feel a responsibility to the backyard. I want it to be taken care of and protected so we can enjoy it for many years to come.”
– Cheryl, Location Supervisor
BONUS: Donate $125 or more and receive an exclusive (and very huggable) Gulliver dog.
As you enjoy the comforts of your home with those you love this holiday season, we hope you will consider giving to the programs and homes for those supported by DASCH.
