The response to our Thanksgiving Food Drive has been nothing short of amazing! The community responded to the staff-organized initiative in resounding fashion. Our school raised just short of one tonne of food for the Markham Food Bank!
The Markham Food Bank distributes just over 750 000 items of food to clients each year. They rely solely on donations from community partners such as grocery stores, donations from households, private donations, and mostly from schools during drives such as the Thanksgiving Food Drive. We are very proud of the result from our school and while we look forward to continuing actively to support our local charities, we look forward to the day when people will no longer be hungry. We continue to pray for those families who are experiencing difficulty during these times.
