This year, the Family Support Program held our biggest hamper drive yet. We purchased 27 Quest Food Exchange hampers, which are Christmas dinner in a box. Each box came with a turkey, variety of fruits and vegetables, gravy, cranberries, sweet treats, and gift card to Quest Food Exchange. And recipes for everything, too!
A BIG thank you to East 16th and Victoria Day Programs. The individuals from East 16th Day Program picked up the hampers from the depot, loaded them into the van, brought everything back to Kaslo, and sorted the hampers before heading out for their deliveries. Victoria Day Program loaded the hampers up in their van, filling every nook and cranny, before heading out for their deliveries. We would not have had such a successful experience without the help of these two programs!
Aside from the Quest hampers, we were very fortunate to receive donated hampers from two generous donors, Cause We Care and St. George’s School. These hampers included gift cards and household products. Overall, we were able to provide a hamper to 46 families.
All the best to you and your family in 2024!
