Candy Cane Lane represents a unique holiday-themed pop-up store, brought to life through the kindness of our local community’s contributions. The families in our shelter and transitional housing are beginning new chapters in their lives, often with few belongings and resources. With the help of our generous community, Candy Cane Lane allows us to provide gifts and winter essentials during the holiday season, to survivors who live at YWCA Utah.
