GoGreen Community Lunch
Our GoGreen lunch took place at the Crescent Point Wickenheiser Centre during the noon hour. Volunteers enjoyed a complimentary meal, while the general public was invited to donate $5.00 or contribute non-perishable food items. The event raised $520, with all cash and food donations going to the Shaunavon Food Bank.
The lunch was catered by Brent Hoffarth of Rose Jade Catering, with cookies generously donated by Laura Nelson, and additional cookies purchased from Leona’s Bakery. Coffee was provided by Meeting Grounds.
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Shaunavon Canalta for their generous sponsorship as a Food Donor, which helped make this event possible and enabled us to give even more back to our community.
