Annual Fill-a-Bag Food Drive resounding success

487

Twenty thousand pounds of non-perishable food was collected from Dundas and Stormont Counties. The generosity of the people in the communities served by Community Food Share will ensure that none of our neighbours will go hungry this summer.

Thanks go to the many volunteers and student volunteers, members of the Board, and Food Share staff for preparing the bags, distributing them on May 7, picking them up on the 14th, and then helping with the weighing and sorting at both our food banks and warehouse.

Special thanks to Upper Canada Creamery and the Biemond family, and to Peter VanKessel for the loan of trailers, and to BroadGrain Commodities, Vanden Bosch Elevators, and Winchester Grain Elevator for weighing our loads.

And thanks to you — the residents of Dundas and Stormont Counties, who generously supported our food drive.
