Is your organization looking to help out #ygk community in need?
We are looking for teams (10ppl minimum) to help us out with our 35th Annual Food Blitz on Saturday May 2nd, 2020.
Volunteer teams will be collecting non-perishables & monetary donations at Kingston area grocery stores from 9am-5pm.
All donations are welcome! These are suggestions for our most needed items:
Walmart's national goal with this year's "Fight Hunger Spark Change" initiative is to raise enough food and monetary donations providing the equivalent to 15 million meals AND a donation of one million dollars to Food Banks Canada!
Partners in Mission Food Bank will be closed Tuesday December 24 at 12 noon and open again Thursday January 2 at 8:30am. Have a safe and happy holiday #ygk!
A Message from Our Executive Director Dan Irwin:
As I complete my first six months as Executive Director at Partners in Mission Food Bank, my first thoughts are how thankful I am to the Kingston community for your continued support. Help has been given by many who want to ensure that this vital piece of the community continues to survive and provide for our neighbours in need.
Looking to host an event in support of Partners in Mission Food Bank?
