Chapter’s Inaugural Philanthropy Initiative

🎄 USS Intrepid Launches Inaugural Philanthropy Initiative

USS Intrepid is proud to launch our first chapter philanthropy initiative, supporting Parker Street Food & Furniture Bank’s Christmas Hamper Program in Nova Scotia.

📅 Campaign Dates: October 5 – November 29, 2026

Although Intrepid is a virtual chapter with crew members around the world, Nova Scotia is our home port. For our inaugural initiative, we wanted to support a local organization making a meaningful difference in our chapter’s home community.

🎁 Parker Street’s Christmas Hamper Program helps financially vulnerable families and individuals across the Halifax Regional Municipality by providing the ingredients for a Christmas turkey dinner, with toys also provided for families with children.

Please give only if you comfortably can. We encourage personal donations to remain $10 or less — our goal is to see what we can accomplish together through many small contributions.

If donating isn’t possible, sharing the fundraiser or helping raise awareness is just as welcome.

🌎 A global crew supporting our home community.
