Ste-Geneviève United Church's
Annual Food Drive - 2011
holly

Every fall Ste-Genny's organizes a Food Drive. Over a period of 10 weeks non-perishable foods, household items, etc. are collected. A few days before Christmas, all the food collected is put on tables in McNevan Hall and Christmas Baskets are prepared for and delivered to needy families in our neighbourhood.

This year, in 2011, Ste-Genny's Youth Group coordinated the food drive. Still, we welcome other helpers. So, we are looking for volunteers to help with various aspects. The list of volunteer positions will be posted here later. Let us not forget: Many hands make light work and every hand counts!

Our 2011 Food Drive was a great success. We received the names of our families from the West Island Assistance Fund and we helped 20 families and two group homes, Cheshire Foundation and the Norma Mc-Alister Residence, as well as needy students at John Abbott's. Thank you all for your contributions of food, toys, goods, money, time, muscle (lifting/carrying boxes) and smiles.

Thank you for helping to make our 2011 FOOD DRIVE as successful as it was last year!

We also asked for your help with the following activities. Thank you for your help and we hope we can count on you agin next year, in 2012:

THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
