Our Vision
Our History
Stratford House of Blessing has been helping people in need in Stratford, Ontario and area for 40 years.
We started off in a 900 square foot house on Wellington Street and now use every inch of our 9000 square foot building on Erie Street.
​
Our Programs
Our Food Bank Program has recently expanded to provide free home delivery of food hampers and appointment bookings for greater safety and comfort. In addition to food we provide personal care items (toiletries, feminine hygiene products and incontinence supplies). For our babies we provide diapers and formula.

Some of our additional programs include:
-
Welcome to the World Baskets - a baby shower in a hamper for caring for new babies​
-
Off to School Smiling - a brand new backpack and school supplies for school-aged children​
