The Yellowknife Food Bank posted on their facebook page over the weekend that they are ‘desperately in need’ of donations to keep up with the needs of the community.
“We gave out all we could (over 100 baskets) this weekend but without more donations, we won’t have enough food for the next distribution on May 25.”
The post states that food can be dropped off at the co-op and that bins are located just after the tills by the exit. The Food Bank also noted that it’s most needed items are
- eggs,
- carrots,
- potatoes,
- margarine or lard,
- cereal,
- rice,
- pasta,
- canned vegetables,
- canned fruit,
- soups and stews,
- pasta sauce,
- canned meat,
- Kraft Dinner.
The Food Bank notes that they will also be organizing a food drive in the coming weeks.
