Make Christmas Magical for Hope Terrace Residents

Hope Terrace is home to 36 individuals living with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), a condition that brings unique challenges to daily life. During the holidays, we work to create a special experience, ensuring each resident feels valued and loved.

With your support, residents will receive personalized gifts, stockings, and festive meals — all wrapped in care and holiday cheer.
