Help Us Collect 10,000LBS of Food!
Redeemer is hosting its annual food drive in support of Neighbour to Neighbour Centre (N2N). For almost 40 years, N2N has worked to alleviate the impacts of food insecurity in Hamilton, serving more than 1,700 households each month.
Redeemer believes that good citizens contribute to the community of which they are a part. We want our students to practice good citizenship throughout their university career, starting with supporting the Neighbour to Neighbour Centre through a community food drive during their first week at Redeemer.
Please help us support those in need as well as teach our students the value of community service by donating generously.
How to Donate:
- On Monday, September 7th, our students will be delivering a flyer and paper grocery bag to over 4,000 homes in the Meadowlands neighbourhood. Simply fill this grocery bag with non-perishable food items and place it on your front porch by 6 p.m. on Friday, September 11th for pick-up. You can find a list of N2N’s Food Donations Needs on their website.
- Donations can also be dropped off between 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays in September at Redeemer’s Main Office located at 777 Garner, Rd. E. Ancaster, ON.
If your bag is missed:
Call 905.648.2131 x4468 or email stlife@redeemer.ca, and we will arrange a pickup.
In case of inclement weather:
The alternative pick-up date will be Saturday, September 12. Please leave food out by 10 a.m.
