June 1, 2010 Volume 8, Issue 4
Thank you for making our centre the best place to be in Sudbury!
Its Time to Give Back Craig Ticalo, Board Chair
In the next few weeks, ILSM has a unique opportunity. It is not an opportunity to raise money, but it is an important phase of our development where we move from being a recipient of the generosity of the public, and give back to those less fortunate than we are.
As you know, the Sudbury Food Bank is the charity of choice for the Dragon boat Festival this year. I fully realize that many of the members are raising funds for us to assist us in our time of financial need.
As a way to raise ILSMs profile and community awareness, the Board of Directors of ILSM has decided to start a food drive. All of the donated items will be given to the Sudbury Food Bank. The next time that you are at the grocery store, do not forget to buy some non-perishable food items for the ILSM Food Drive.
The Sudbury Food Bank supports over 45 agencies in our community that help people in need. Your donation may help a single mother with children, an INCO striker, an elderly person living on a fixed income, people down on their luck that live on the streets, or even more sadly, per-haps one of our members who accesses the Food Bank to live from day to day, but is too embarrassed or ashamed to tell anyone.
Please give generously. If you have friends or family that would like to contribute to the ILSM Food Drive, we would be pleased to receive their contributions as well.
I want to thank all of the members in advance for their anticipated contribution to this important initiative.
The Centre Food Drive, How You Can be Part of it!
Below are the items that the Food Bank can always use. Please add one of these items to your weekly shopping list and help us fill our bin!
Staples:
Peanut butter, jam, cheese spread, powdered milk, sugar, flour, tea, coffee, ketchup
Lunches school/home:
Cereals, macaroni & cheese, tuna, canned fish, canned meats, canned vegetables, canned pastas,
Canned fruits, fruit cups, tetra pack juices
Supper Fillers - items that stretch:
Canned soups, packaged soups, crackers, canned stews, canned hams, pasta mixes.
Health and vitamin items:
Bottled juices, frozen juices, canned juices, hot chocolate, baby food, and formula.
Diapers, feminine hygiene products, bathroom tissue, deodorant, toothpaste, soap, laundry soap, and dish soap.
