We asked you, our loyal readers, to join us in supporting the Pelham Cares Food Bank this festive season — and your response was nothing short of extraordinary.
During the holidays, an increased number of people are reliant on our local food bank. This increased need means that the Pelham Cares Food Bank needs our support more than ever.
PelhamToday brought our whole community together to help provide that support.
We partnered with Food Basics Fonthill to offer gift cards for purchase through an online pop-up store.
PelhamToday and generous local businesses pledged to match every purchase made through the online store, meaning that every purchase was matched 12 times!
Together, we raised an incredible $5,350 for the Pelham Cares Food Bank and delivered 15 gift cards, helping to support those who need it most over the holiday season. Thank you!
Special thanks to Food Basics Fonthill for donating the gift cards for this initiative, and to the following businesses who have joined us in matching each donation: Paul Davis Niagara, DKI Miller Restoration, Peninsula Lakes Golf Course, B4 Networks, Cindy and John Raskob (Royal Lepage), Marando Family Dentistry, Chambers Insurance Professionals, Accelerated Health and Wellness Centre Inc., Root Bissonette Walker LLP, Dentistry in the Village and Peace Park Dental.
If you didn't get a chance to participate in this program, we encourage you to send your donation directly to Pelham Cares. You can give online or call (905) 892-5300) to arrange a donation, or click here for more information on how to give back.
