Fire Dept. Food Bank

Well that was certainly an exciting Christmas weather-wise: snow, hail, ice, wind, sun, atmospheric river, high tides, some frozen pipes, a power outage, etc.  But what shone through was the spirit of Thetis Islanders.  To date you have donated 750 lbs. of food to the food bank and 95 pairs of new socks!

We are extending the Fire Dept. Food Bank drop off to this Wednesday afternoon, December 28th. We are only 250 lbs. short of the half a ton of food donations we were shooting for, so check your cupboards for those tins of asparagus soup or chunk tuna fish that you aren’t going to use (they must not be out of date) and drop them off at the Fire Department.  Packaged non-expired groceries are delightfully accepted.

Whatever the final total is that we reach, we are very appreciative of how generous our community is towards our neighbours who are struggling a bit to make ends meet.
