Is there any charge to participate?

No. However, this is a fundraiser, and we encourage you to do your best to recruit generous sponsorship for your efforts. Every dollar will directly support Angel Tree programs in your region.

There are over 357,000 children affected by parental incarceration in Canada. These children often carry the weight of shame and the stigmatization of their peers. At PFC we recognize the importance of the healing journey of the family of those who are incarcerated. The Angel Tree program offers a number of programs that help children know they are loved.

This ministry is made possible by the hard work of our volunteers and the generosity of our supporters. If you are interested in learning more about how you can get involved, click below.
