At our Food Security Distribution Centre, we serve over 70 different agencies Monday-Friday. One of these agencies is @VicCoolAid! The food that they pick up each week goes towards the 950 meals they serve every day and is also given out to residents in their buildings!
We want to extend a massive thank you to @Ocean_Networks who raised $1,214 for The Mustard Seed. They hosted a fundraiser for us which included a silent auction in which the highest bidder got to shave a team members head! What a cool way to raise money for a good cause!
Yesterday was Break the Rules Day at the
Junior School! Students could break one rule for each
non-perishable food item donated to the

There were a lot of broken rules such as casual
clothing, nail polish, a variety of accessories and even
chewing gum!
We want to give a huge thank you to 3rd Douglas and 7th Juan De Fuca Boy Scouts for your generous donation of 963 lbs of non perishable food!
They held a competitions between the groups to see who could collect the most and 7th Juan De Fuca came out victorious!
Thank you!
