When you order takeout from Re-Up BBQ or Tre Galli Gelato Caffe bring items from Food Bank’s top 10 list and receive a $5 City Avenue Market gift card.
This food drive is about the virtuous cycle of giving. Thank you for supporting our local businesses during this time by ordering take out. And, thank you for bringing a food item to help support those in need in our community. The $5 City Avenue Market gift card is a small token of appreciation.
The canned food drive ends June 2.
All items are going to the New Westminster Homeless Coalition Society. This organization does an enormous amount to help our friends and neighbours.
