This year the DRCA will be hosting a community food bank for anyone who needs it!

Every Sunday, volunteers will warmly welcome and guide you to the north side of the gym and give you a ticket for your turn. Tables, chairs, and refreshments will be set up for anyone who attends. The food will be distributed on a first come, first served basis.

How did the Community Food Bank start? Community members had connections to warehouses where food was going to waste. They decided to help distribute it to anyone who may need it. Bread, fresh fruit and veggies, canned produce, cereal, and much more is available.

But wait, there is more! They aren’t just giving out groceries. This is an opportunity for you to get to know your neighbours. Sit down and get to know the people in your neighbourhood. Everyone is welcome, especially children and families.

Scheduling details and up to date information can be found on our website and Facebook page.
