Happy to report 2,072 lbs of food (plus monetary donations) was collected today with the Caremonger ALL TOGETHER OSHAWA Contact Free Food Drive!!
As Zachary Simmons organizer of the grassroots Oshawa Caremonger Group says that is literally ONE TON and the equivalent of 1,726 meals.
Kristine Sylvie Dandavino who first pitched the idea on the Caremonger facebook page 5 weeks ago and ran with it says she is "beyond thrilled with our community coming together".
Great Job Everyone! Donors! and Volunteers! It was a good experience and one hopefully to be repeated. Best to start thinking of reserving the Sunday after Thanksgiving next year!
