A centre located in the heart of Metro Halifax is delivering care packages filled with food, educational resources or fun activities to the doorsteps of families and individuals in need during COVID-19.
Bayers Westwood Family Resource Centre is located in the centre of the region’s largest housing community, which has 350 homes.
Normally, community members would come in the centre for coffee and breakfast, but the way these programs are being delivered now has changed due to the pandemic. “What we’re trying to do now to keep on helping the community is create care packages,” said Donna Sutton, executive director of the centre.
