  • Food & Essential Items Drive - The Astaris Foundation community support project

    Feeding Hope: Food for Vulnerable Families

    We're dedicated to supporting those in need by providing food and vital supplies to homeless shelters, domestic violence shelters, women and children's shelters, food banks and low-income families.

    Through fundraising and community support, we aim to make a real difference in the lives of vulnerable individuals and families.

    Every donation helps us provide essentials that offer comfort, nourishment, and stability to those facing hardship. Together, we can ensure that no one is left without the basic necessities they deserve.

  • The Astaris Foundation for Change community litter picking project

    The Big Community Clean Up

    We will be going round Halifax and surrounding areas picking and bagging litter found on the streets in an effort to clean up the community.

    If you'd like to join us as a volunteer litter picker please get in touch! We appreciate the community spirit!
