It's Christmas in July at the SHARE Food Bank! The generosity in food donations through Christmas 2009 was extraordinary.
These donations have stretched right through June even though the number of people coming to the Food Bank has been so much higher. But, the food is nearly gone and so we are hoping you can support the Christmas in July campaign with a donation, right here on this website or a donation of food at any grocery store in the Tri-city area.
Please also consider adding a food drive to your summer family and neighbourhood gatherings or in your workplace.
The SHARE Food Banks serve the residents of the Tri-cities and are supported by the Tri-cities.
