Thank you to our chefs, cooks, meal packers, and drivers for preparing and delivering over 90,000 free community meals for neighbours during these last 2 years of the pandemic!
Tonight, however, will be our last community meal delivery. We are excited to return to in-house meals on Mondays starting September 12th from 5pm - 6pm. Our Wednesday and Friday community lunches and other programs including our low-cost Community Access Market on Friday (11am - 1pm) will continue as usual.
Perogies anyone? Our Welcome Kitchen group enjoyed some social time cooking from scratch and then sharing these delicious jems together. Contact Erin at erin@thelocalcfc.org to join in the fun Wednesday's from 4pm to 6pm. Thanks to United Way Perth-Huron for sponsoring the program.
We wished another fond fare-thee-well last week to our Volunteer Coordinator, Chris Schroer, whose versatility, organizational skills, and passion for systems change we will sorely miss around here. Thanks, Chris, for your contributions to advancing our mission here at The Local and we look forward to seeing the positive change you'll undoubtedly make in the world! #MoreThanGoodFood
