A big thank you to Safeway Canada for their continued generous support to our society through their Community Action Fund! This funding allows us to provide healthy snacks year round at our events, which lessens food barriers children may face when participating, and creates an opportunity for connection surrounding food🙌
We greatly appreciate Safeway Canada's support, as without it we would not be able to provide this necessary service to our members!
