KIWANIS FOOD DRIVE
It’s again that time of year when we think of the Woolwich Community Services (“WCS”) Christmas Goodwill Hampers.
While the need will be greater, as a result of Covid19, the Hampers will be done somewhat differently. As part of the change there will be NO DOOR TO DOOR FOOD DRIVE.
Instead funds will need to be raised to replace the food, that would otherwise be put in such hampers, and WCS will be replacing the food with Gift Cards for Foodland and Food Basics. Set out below is a brief summary of how this fundraising will be accomplished.
- Area Service Clubs are joining together to offer you an opportunity to donate (either cash or by cheque) at certain businesses in Woolwich Township on Friday November 20th and Saturday November 21st.
- As an alternative at any time before December 5th:
- donations of cash, cheques or gift cards for Foodland or Food Basics will be accepted at WCS’ office located at 5 Memorial Ave, Elmira; or
- online donations may be made at https://www.woolwichcommunityservices.org/donate; under the Fund dropdown, please choose Christmas Goodwill (Food)
New Elders 2021:
Sunday is the last day to submit Elder nominations. Any current member of Session and Rev. Sinclair are available to answer any question you may have about this essential role in our ministry.
Please use this opportunity to assist the Gale Session as we move forward into a vibrant future.
