Support Your Community: Donate to Our Food Bank Today! Out basket is located in the Hub, just inside the main entrance.
In our community, countless families are struggling to put food on the table. Every day, parents skip meals so their children can eat, seniors on fixed incomes face tough choices between food and medicine, and those hit hardest by the economic downturn wonder where their next meal will come from. But you can make a difference. By donating to our local food bank, you can help ensure that no one in our community goes hungry.
What We Need Most:
To best serve those in need, we’re seeking donations of non-perishable, nutritious food items. These are the staples that can make a significant impact:
Top Priority Items:
- Tinned Meat: Hot dogs, chicken in sauce etc.
- Tinned Vegetables: green beans, sweetcorn, tomatoes, potatoes and peas.
