April Loonie Offering will be going to The Second Harvest Food Bank (click here to find out more about Second Harvest)

Second Harvest Food Bank is a food program that embodies the principle of “those who have more than they need sharing with those who have less.” Food is provided from the four main food groups and we have a special milk program for families with children. No government funding is received, so the operation relies on generous donations of food and cash from the community. At present, approximately 2000 needy families are being served each week who would otherwise have to do without.
