Homelessness may be less visible in our affluent community, but it exists. You may not see people begging on the streets, but you also may not be aware of the thousands who visit food banks each week, "struggling to provide the basic necessities for them- selves and their children," said Kerr Street Mission executive director Gary O'Neill. Yet there are more than 18,600 residents living be- low the poverty line in this town; in fact, one in eight Oakville children under the age of 18 live in poverty, according to the 2018 Vital Youth Report, published by the Oakville Community Foundation. KSM is only too aware of the need in the community, and that help only becomes more acute at Christmas. This year, the numbers have increased, and KSM needs the community's support more than ever, said Heidi Avery, KSM's STRUGGLING FAMILIES NEED YOUR HELP MORE THAN EVER THIS CHRISTMAS KATHY YANCHUS kyanchus@metroland.com Clients are welcomed in line during Kerr Street Mission's Christmas Wonders gift card giveaway.
