I’ve just received our January Operations Report and am saddened to report that this past January, we served the highest number of clients in one month ever. Over 2,100 of our Barrhaven neighbours needed our help in January and, I for one, am glad that we had food on our shelves and money in our account so we could meet that need.
This dramatic need represents an increase of 86% compared to a year ago. We never want to turn people away, but we also need to make sure we have enough in our bank to meet the need. So, we’ve set a new spring goal for ourselves. We want to add 30 new monthly donors to our supporter list. Would you be willing to sign up today?
Monthly donations help us plan better for the future and provide predictability for our food cupboard. Amounts from $25, $50 or whatever you can give, would be most appreciated. Your monthly donation will help ensure that our shelves can remain stocked to meet the needs of the growing number of families we serve.

Thanks for considering becoming a neighbour helping neighbours, by signing up to be a monthly donor and meeting our goal of 30 new supporters!
