🎅Santa's Workshop was a great success!🎄Families were treated to a wonderful shopping experience and got a chance to have a tour of our facility and chat with staff and volunteers.
We could not have put this event on without the support of our local grocery stores, C&L Supply Ltd. who donated a generator for our outdoor heated waiting area, and our generous community who brought food, gifts, toys, and baked goods.
A huge THANK YOU to our dedicated volunteer Diane who dreamed up this magical event and worked tirelessly to sort and categorize every single item. Administration and staff volunteered countless hours to transform our warehouse into a winter wonderland...and then back again!
To our wonderful volunteers here at the Food Bank and their family
members, community organizations who came to give a helping hand, Campbell River Daybreak Rotary, the Timberline Rotary Interact Students, Immigrant Welcome Centre of North Vancouver Island, Rachel Blaney North Island - Powell River MP, and the Beacon Club - thank you!
To our story book readers and our talented entertainers, Max Klein and friends, who played and sang all evening long, and last but certainly not least, Imagination Unlimited/Shoo Shoo the clown who brought a smile to every child (and many adults) with face painting and balloon animals!
We couldn't have put on this terrific event without the kind help of all of you and many more. From the Food Bank Family to yours, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you 🙏
