News & Upcoming Events

We are proud participates of the After the Bell program. After the Bell support foodbanks to provide kids who are experiencing hunger with increased access to much needed nutritious food during summer when the need is higher due to many school centred support programs not being available. Each week we add fruit and vegetables to each healthy food pack. This week we added 2 apples, orange and 2 cheese strings. Food Banks Canada is the driver of this program and we one of the chosen recipients. We are very grateful to be able to offer this wonderful program to our clients. After the Bell is generously supported by Fresh Food Partner Subway along with proud sponsors whose funding, products and services make this program possible.

Thank you so much to the Consecon Community Garden, Joe Clancy from Consecon for all the cucumbers and peppers and Cheryl Morrison for the tomatoes. Thank you everyone for making a difference.

Thank you to Brenden Crowther and Charles Jergl from Second Harvest Daily Bread Foodbank for the food donations today!

Thank you so much to everyone who supported our Back to School Cram the Cruiser Fundraiser, because of your generosity we received roughly $3000 worth of kids lunch and breakfast supplies along with other groceries and cleaning supplies. Thank you to Lily and Marley Tobias and Molly Polidoro who sold cookies on Main Street and then came over and bought groceries with the money they raised. Thank you to Pierson’s Foodland staff, OPP Auxiliary Officers Alex Lebel and Sam Pancuik and the foodbank volunteers for all your hard work, and help in ensuring this fundraiser was a great success. We really appreciate the support we received from the community and grateful for your generosity in helping us, help others!
