Food Bank Gets Boost From CAA Niagara
A tremendous thank you goes out to our wonderful supporters at CAA Niagara who came by to bring us 377.5lbs of non-perishable food items from their The Big Food Boost food drive recently.
Then, Peter Van Hezewyk and his team at CAA totally surprised our executive director, Christine Clark Lafleur, client service manager, Sarah Eller and board member Carl Santoni with a big cheque for $6,000 that blew them away!
We sincerely appreciate this generosity and support that will go directly to our food bank and meal program which is in high-demand and continuing to grow since the pandemic.
Peter Van Hezewyk and his team at CAA were instrumental in our Seniors Hamper Program, where they delivered items to seniors for us every week and they continue to be amazing to us. THANK YOU, CAA Niagara!
