Christmas Fund reaches $1.24 million, boosted by flurry of donations


We expect a few more donations to arrive by mail for the next week or so. That means the final total will go even higher.
COVID-19 has helped some people and some businesses, but many others have been hurt. There is real suffering in our community, and the Christmas Fund is here to help, in the holiday season and in the months to come.
Even with the vaccine being rolled out, it’s generally thought that the harsh impact will continue to be felt for a few more months. Some businesses might not recover until 2022 or 2023 and that means that the people who rely on those businesses might have trouble coping. ....

Still time to donate to Christmas Fund; many people are in need


One notable comment, which came with a $500 donation: “At our ages, 91 and 87, we are very fortunate. We’re making this donation to help the many needy people during this dreadful pandemic.”
The campaign has been pushed ahead by match challenges, including 10 by Andrew Beckerman, as well as large donations from local residents, businesses and organizations such as the Victoria Foundation. By the end of business on Tuesday, we had received about 3,800 individual contributions.
The money will be used to help local organizations help people in need. The fund is run by a charitable society, which will strive to draw lasting impact from this money, change that will help our extended community in the cold, rainy months of January and February. ....

Women's Transition House opens second temporary shelter amid surge in domestic abuse


Since the start of the pandemic, the non-profit organization has seen unprecedented demand for access to its 30-day emergency shelter and support services from women and children fleeing domestic violence.
“I have never seen such a demand,” said Susan Howard, spokeswoman for the society. “Our crisis line and emergency shelter have been incredibly busy.”
Howard said the pandemic seems to have exacerbated the challenges of leaving an abusive relationship, with abusive partners becoming more agitated and violent over time.
But the increased demand came at the same time as new safety protocols that limit capacity, she said. “Our shelter can hold 18 women and children, but with pandemic physical-distancing restrictions and health and safety guidelines, we are only able to operate at 60 per cent capacity,” Howard said. ....

Christmas Fund reaches $845,000, toward new goal of $1 million


In the past couple of days we have seen increased donations from north of the Malahat, which might have been prompted by the list of organizations we are helping that we published in the Sunday Times Colonist.
With the high level of donations this year, we have extended the fund’s reach across Vancouver Island more than ever before. We are doing our best to provide help in as many communities as we can.
The list includes the Mustard Seed Street Church, the Salvation Army in Victoria, the Goldstream Food Bank, the Sooke Food Bank, the Saanich Peninsula Food Bank, the Victoria Women’s Transition House, and the Vancouver Island Counselling Centre for Immigrants and Refugees. ....
