Since 2020, our volunteer team has run the Thursday Table every Wednesday from the back of the parish hall. We started with 18 families, and now we feed 190 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 60% this winter, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 15 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Edmonton market and keep every receipt.
Each $30 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $2,650 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $980
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $1,050
• Baby formula and diapers: $620
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Sending good thoughts, Sarah. More neighborhoods should do this.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care
