myFM’s “All Hands on Deck Food Drive” is set to return on August 17, and excitement is building as local residents and businesses gear up to participate.
This will be our 5th edition of this ever-so important community event, one which General Sales Manager at 94.1 myFM Tim Smart is excited to experience for the first time.
For those not familiar with the myFM All Hands on Deck Food Drive, it’s a day where we focus on getting our local food bank shelves filled up just in time for back to school.
Smart shares when and where we’ll be set up next week.
With so much to think about and so many products to purchase before back to school, the All Hands on Deck Food Drive looks to take the worry away from parents who reply on our local food banks.
While we will have shopping lists available at each location, Smart gives us a few examples of what we’re hoping to collect.
Along with our generous sponsors, the myFM team will be on site collecting donations for the St. Thomas Elgin Food Bank, the Corner Cupboard in Aylmer and the Port Stanley Community Food Bank.
In years past, we were able to make the single largest one time donation to our area food banks and we can do that again with your help!
The 5th annual myFM and Elgin Roofing All Hands on Deck Food Drive will run from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. August 17th at the Real Canadian Superstore in St. Thomas, Miller’s Your Independent Grocer in Aylmer and Foodland in Port Stanley.
