Community Events:

Each week more people are making the call they never expected to make: where is my closest food program. Food for Life is seeing an increase in 30% for their services, and expect that number to grow.

Here are a few ways that will keep Food for Life going:

• The best way to ensure food keeps moving is for you to make an online donation.
• Text 2 Give: Text FOOD to 41010 to donate $10 right from your phone. Stay home, do good.
• Stores and farmers can contact Food for Life at 905-635-1106 or email Melissa at Melissa@foodforlife.ca to donate produce.
• Restaurants with surplus food can use foodrescue.ca to donate what they cannot use right now.
• Share #AllInThisTogether and #FoodHero messages on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

In partnership with the Sprott and Gilgan Foundations, Food for Life will be launching a campaign to double every donation they receive.

Dedication of the Marianne Schuett Bench

On April 27, 1967, Marianne Schuett was abducted from Kilbride. Marianne’s abduction was devastating to her family and caused shock and dismay throughout the village of Kilbride. As news of the tragic event spread, hundreds of people joined in the search for Marianne, but their efforts were to no avail.

It remains the hope of all who know Marianne’s story that someone who knows something will come forward with information about her disappearance. It is not too late to bring closure to her family and her community.

At the request of the Schuett family, the Kilbride History Group has initiated the placement of a memorial bench in front of Kilbride Public School, close to the location where Marianne was abducted. There will be a reception following at the Kilbride United Church.
