We assist our clients with services that support their independence, health and quality of life. In doing so, we help them remain in their own homes – where they want to be.
Safety First
Community Care Durham cares about the community and is committed to providing support for our most vulnerable. To ensure the safety of our clients, client-facing staff and volunteers will continue to mask and use the appropriate PPE to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Season of Giving is Here!
We’re inviting local businesses to join our Season of Giving campaign this year in support of our Meals on Wheels and Community Food Box programs.
There are two ways to make a difference:
Donate – A financial gift from the business could provide meals for those in need, or staff teams can fundraise together.
Donate & Volunteer – In addition to making a donation, teams could see firsthand the impact of this support by delivering meals or food boxes, or even writing personal notes to accompany deliveries.
For more information, please contact Tina Kessler, Fundraising Coordinator, at tkessler@communitycaredurham.on.ca or 905.430.0969.
We'd love to hear from you!
To keep serving our community well, we’re asking for feedback from our volunteers, clients and caregivers.
