Dear Friends,

Guess what, there are so many birthday gatherings we often attend throughout the year. Why don't we do something different starting this year?

Instead of giving out individual gifts to each other, let's all donate to the Daily Bread Food Bank in Toronto with our unique group name ~ we are now FoodieGals!!! Yay!!!

We still get our own tax receipts and stuff, so no worries. I think it will be a much more meaningful gift we are contributing as a group.

Cheers and God Bless!

Now more than ever, we need your help.

Since January 2021, Daily Bread's network has seen an average of 110,000 client visits per month, compared to 68,000 per month in 2019. If current usage rates continue, it is projected that Toronto food banks will see 1.4 million visits in 2021, the highest number ever recorded in the city's history.

As food bank use continues to rise, it's more important than ever to ensure everyone's right to food is realized.

That's why we're holding a fundraiser to support Daily Bread Food Bank. And that's why we need your help.

Did you know that after they've paid for housing, the average food bank client has $7.83 left per day? That's $7.83 to cover all other expenses – including food – making it impossible for them to stock the recommended supply of provisions for their family.

Click the "DONATE NOW" button to make a gift to Daily Bread and help ensure our neighbours can continue to access fresh, nutritious food – in 2021 and beyond.

Thank you in advance for your generous support.
