FEDLATAM is launching its “Holiday of Hope” campaign to bring the joy of Christmas to children and families from Latin American newcomer communities in Winnipeg who are celebrating their first holiday seasons in Canada. The campaign culminates in a special family event focused on community celebration and gift distribution to the children.

To support the initiative, Fedlatam is hosting a Festive Breakfast Fundraiser, offering delicious holiday-season meals for sale. Pre-sale is currently open (Link: https://www.zeffy.com/en-CA/ticketing/foundation-for-the-empowerment-and-developmnent-of-latin-amess-shop) to reserve food and contribute directly to the cause.

The organization invites businesses and individuals to become Sponsors or Donors. Partnership offers meaningful brand exposure within Winnipeg’s growing Latin American community (over 3,000 members) and demonstrates a strong commitment to inclusion and newcomer support.

Contributions can be made in two ways: by donating new, unwrapped toys (suitable for children aged 0–12) or through monetary gifts used to purchase culturally appropriate items and cover logistics. Multiple toy drop-off locations are available across the city, including Sprinter Auto Repair and Sutton Group Kilkenny Real Estate.
