I've blogged before about how many people will be hosting holiday luncheons and other events over the next month. Some don't even wait for a holiday.
On Thursday, we got a call out of the blue from our friends at Microsoft on Queen Street. They had sandwiches, bottles of juice, fruit platters and other delicious treats that they wanted to donate to us. So out went two people in a little Hyundai thinking they were just picking up a few sandwiches.
There was so much good stuff that they had to put the back seats down and pile it in the car and then drive very carefully back to Shepherds of Good Hope. Men and women were lined up outside for supper and they could see some of the wonderful sandwiches and treats we were delivering to the soup kitchen.
Thank you so much to the wonderful people at Microsoft.
It's that easy this holiday season. If you find yourself with leftover trays of food after your holiday lunch, just give us a call or you if you're in the neighbourhood, you can drop it off at our backdoor (Door No. 3) located at the back of our parking lot.
If you would like to make a donation, please call me at 613-789-8210, ext. 247.
