We are a Canadian Non-Profit that helps Calgarians in need
Who We Are
Our History
Harvest Hills Cares Calgary has a significant history that reflects its commitment to helping the community during challenging times. The organization was established in response to the needs of many Calgarians who faced hardships during the lockdown period. Whether individuals experienced job losses or had to self-isolate, Harvest Hills Cares stepped up to provide support.
Volunteers play a crucial role in the organization’s operations. They engage in intake processes, assessing the needs of individuals and families who seek assistance. If Harvest Hills Cares is unable to fulfill a particular request, they ensure to connect those individuals with other organizations that can offer help. Jennifer Rapuano-Kermenik, a dedicated volunteer, emphasizes the organization’s mission to support those in need.
Over time, Harvest Hills Cares has made a significant difference in the lives of more than 2,300 families and counting. However, their ambitions extend beyond their current accomplishments. The organization aims to expand its reach and form partnerships with other non-profit organizations. By collaborating with like-minded entities, Harvest Hills Cares hopes to amplify its impact and provide even more comprehensive support to the Calgary community.
