So excited to be nominated for Reporter of the Year at @NewCdnMedia for my story on why newcomers represent a growing number of food bank users in Canada.
Grateful for the community leaders at @UAlberta and @ActsKingdom as well as the food bank users I spoke to who helped me understand what's behind these numbers. You can vote for my story today (or any of the other awesome nominees before Feb. 25 here): https://t.co/zZ2MJiDahh
