3 - WAY SUPPORT FOR FOOD4KIDS

On March 2nd, Club members packed a record 360 bags of food in under an hour. The “dream team” was joined by brand new Provisional Member Wayne Riddle.

Later that month, Food4Kids Committee Chair Marlene was pleased to present Executive Director Amber with a cheque for a further $2500 bringing our 2021-22 contribution up to $5000 (plus a much appreciated District Grant for $2000 U.S.)!
 
 
 
As Chair Marlene puts it “It is heartbreaking that the demand for the Food4Kids service is increasing every week. Amber is in short supply of tuna and could use our help to alleviate hunger for these food insecure young students.” From March 4 –14, the Club conducted another tuna drive (Tuna, Tuna, Tuna II) to meet the demand. Our friend Charlie the Tuna was pleased to report that 403 tins of tuna were collected. With $125 in cash donations, the drive had an estimated retail value of $628.75.
