Dear L.L.B.C. Members:<br />

The Community Share Food Bank, which services over 150 families<br />

each week, wishes to thank the Leaside Bowling Club members who<br />

donated over 150 food items over the summer. It means a lot to the<br />

many families who use this Food Bank to know that there are groups,<br />

such as yours, who give back to their community.<br />

This past year has seen a significant increase in the number of clients<br />

we are serving. Some are new to Canada; others just need a hand up.<br />

We are happy to welcome them all but couldn’t do so without the support<br />

of people like you.<br />

In early October, the Club will invite all members attending a Sunshine<br />

Day to bring in a food item for the Food Bank in place of a<br />

loonie. A special treat will be supplied. Notice outlining the date and<br />

items most needed will be sent out shortly.<br />

Thank you again for your generosity of spirit as we strive to help<br />

those less fortunate than ourselves within our community.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Dorothy Boothroyd<br />

On behalf of the Board of Directors<br />

and<br />

Diane Gore, Volunteer Co-ordinator for Community Share Food Bank<br />

WE ARE A RAINBOW IN SOMEONE ELSE'S CLOUD!<br />
