Community Outreach

Toyland - CLOSED

Toyland ensures kids in need in the greater Moncton area have gifts under the tree for Christmas each year. 

Over 1500 children received gifts for Christmas this year because of the incredible community support.

THANK YOU to everyone who donated, dropped off gifts and volunteered. We couldn’t have done it without you. 

Coats for Kids - CLOSED

Each October, our kind community donates new and gently used coats, and other winter wear for children of all ages.

Coats can be dropped off at Headstart from 8am-4pm Monday through Friday, or donated at participating Jean Coutu locations on Mountain Road, Dieppe and Riverview.

Coats will be distributed to those most in need on Friday, November 4th from 9am -12pm and then 1pm-3pm while supplies last.

To make sure that children truly in need receive a warm coat this winter, we must ask that you bring several pieces of ID with you when you arrive to pick up coats. You’ll need to show:

1) Proof of NB address (driver’s license, lease, and/or utility bill)

2) Documentation proving your child’s/children’s date of birth (birth certificate, NB medicare card)

3) Proof of income (child tax benefit, GST Notice or proof of NB Social Assistance)

School Supplies Drive - CLOSED

Headstart collects school supplies to give out to kids in need each summer. These supplies make sure kids returning to school have the stuff they need. Parents unable to afford the cost of school supplies bring us their lists and we provide many of the items needed. 

Despite challenges with supplies this year, 668 children received School Supplies in 2022. Wishing a happy and successful school year for all.

Applications closed early due to lack of supply. Appointments made were honoured but no new applications could be accepted. We apologize for the inconvenience.
