This winter, help kids build forts and snowmen, make snow angels, and have snowball fights! One of the tragic impacts of increased inflation is that many low-income families will struggle even more this year to afford warm winter clothing for their children.
That is why West Island Community Shares (WICS), in collaboration with BMO Bank of Montreal West Island branches, are raising funds and in-kind donations to provide brand-new snowsuits, hats, neck warmers, and warm mittens for vulnerable West Island children.
