The annual Coast Wide Food Bank Drive has been launched with a very generous donation of $5,000 by long-time supporters, Unifor 1119.
As the need for the services of our four Sunshine Coast Food Banks increases, people in the community have the opportunity to show their support.
On Saturday, May 10, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Coasters are invited to drop off cash or food donations to the following locations: Gibsons SuperValu, Gibsons IGA, Sunshine Coast Credit Union, Wilson Creek IGA, Sechelt Your Independent Grocer, Claytons, Sunshine Coast Credit Union and Pender Harbour IGA.
Coasters can participate virtually as well during the month of May by going to Sunshine Coast Foundation donation page: https://sunshinecoast.fcsuite.com/erp/donate/create/fund?funit_id=1301
Along with the Pender Harbour Food Bank, St. Bart’s Food Bank, Salvation Army Food Bank, and the Sunshine Coast Community Services Food Bank, others supporting this food bank drive include Bethel Baptist Church, Christian Life Assembly, Salvation Army, St. Mary’s Catholic Church, Calvary Baptist Church, Holy Family Church and St. John’s United Church.
