Over the last six months, weโve prepared and delivered a staggering 21,150 sandwiches to our amazing partnering agencies, including The Salvation Army Journey To Life Centre Thunder Bay, Shelter House, Attendant Centre, PACE Thunder Bay, and NorWest Community Health Centres. ๐ฅช๐This wouldnโt have been possible without the dedication of our volunteers, the generosity of local stores who donated bread, and the incredible teamwork that fueled this initiative. Each sandwich represents care, compassion, and support for those who need it most in our community.Thank you to everyone who played a part in making this happen. Together, weโre making a real difference! ๐#CommunitySupport #ThankYou #EndHunger #VolunteersRock #RFDA #FoodForAll
