Happy Holidays from Hull Services!
We are so grateful for all your support to the young people and families this Giving Tuesday. Thank you!
The kids that live at Hull are safe and secure here — but they also need a physical environment that promotes healing.
Some of our spaces at Hull Services are more than 60 years old and that puts limitations on the therapeutic care we can provide to them.
This Giving Tuesday, please donate today and help us provide the important therapeutic and comfortable spaces our kids need and deserve.

Happy National Child Day 💙
When you’re out doing your holiday shopping this year, we ask you to be the Santa for the kids and youth who reside in our live-in programs. These children come to Hull from homes with little, sometimes nothing at all. Bring the magic of Christmas to these kids by supporting our Happy Hullidays campaign.
Ways you can support the kids:
1) Make a cash donation: Hull’s counsellors and program staff will shop for the children and youth in their care.
2) Request a wish list: We have asked each child or youth to give us a wish list of what they would like to receive this holiday season.
3) Purchase a gift: Purchase a gift from our suggested gift list (on our website) and we will ensure this gift is under the tree on Christmas morning for a child or youth.
Donors can deliver the gift (unwrapped please) to Hull Services 2266 Woodpark Avenue SW, or arrange for a safe pick-up prior to December 21, 2021.
To make the holiday season for the kids at Hull brighter this year, visit https://hullservices.ca/news-events/gifts-for-kids-youth/
