It’s time, once again, for us to team up with Yasir Naqvi, MPP Ottawa Centre, and local politicians for the Capital Food Blitz Food Drive on June 15.
Keep an eye out for local politicians and Ottawa Food Bank volunteers at 18 Metro, Loblaws, Your Independent Grocer’s, and Superstore locations between 1 p.m and 4 p.m. during the day handing out donation bags to fill with non-perishable food items for the Ottawa Food Bank.
We’d love for you to help us out and volunteer! Sign up today:
