Home for the Holidays

Home for the Holidays
Giving current and former youth in care a place to celebrate the holidays with their FACS family.

Together, we’re helping Niagara’s children, youth and families thrive.

Family & Children’s Services Niagara works with some of our community’s most vulnerable children, youth, and their families.

While FACS Niagara works to protect children and youth and strengthen families, the Niagara Foundation for Family & Children’s Services raises funds and awareness to support and help children, youth and families in the Niagara Region to reach their full potential. Although FACS Niagara receives funding to provide protection and support services, the FACS Foundation raises funds so that local kids in need can enjoy a summer camp experience and youth in care have opportunities for college, university and job skills training. The Foundation also supports capital improvements at FACS Niagara facilities and works with the community to support children and families during Holidays and the Festive Season.
