No Central Okanagan baby will go hungry, thanks to support from local charities.
The Gary Bennett Family Fund donated $3,000 to the Central Okanagan Food Bank鈥檚 (COFB) No Hungry Children campaign and its Tiny Bundles Program, which provide pregnant mothers and families with children under age one with monthly food hampers, as well as weekly nutritional supplements, diapers, baby food and formula.
With the donation, COFB was able to purchase baby products at the West 91大黄鸭 Real Canadian Superstore.
鈥淏aby products are incredibly expensive to buy and we couldn鈥檛 be more grateful for the many years of support from the Gary Bennett Family Fund,鈥� COFB CEO Trevor Moss said.
鈥淟ast year, we had 1,356 visits to our Tiny Bundles program, which has a budget of over $183,000 per year to run. The addition of these products will go a long way to ensure local families have the support they need to provide a healthy life for their children.鈥�
