COVID-19: Sun Youth helps thousands – More than 5,000 people have received food assistance from Sun Youth Organization since the beginning of the COVID-19 crisis. Although confinement measures coupled with school and daycare closures have created a reduced staff and volunteer situation, Sun Youth’s food bank, medication program, fire program and other emergency services continues to help disadvantaged Montrealers. Special measures and protocols have been put in place to avoid propagation of the virus throughout this operation and clients are asked to call for an appointment to access our services.
With requests for emergency aid likely to increase exponentially throughout the Island of Montreal, Sun Youth is dedicated to growing its support efforts to meet the demands of the community, ensuring that all those in need can be helped. Sun Youth anticipates their numbers to rise significantly in the next few weeks and they will not be able to sustain the support without monetary, food and essential products donations.
During this crisis, all Sun Youth’s efforts combined will make us a stronger community and hopefully save lives and livelihoods.
