Interfaith Food Bank is celebrating Christmas by baking up a storm in the Co-op Community Kitchen.
Food Recovery and Helpful Hobbies Volunteers have created a selection of Christmas goodies for community members to purchase in support of food bank programs and services.
Homemade Treat Boxes include an assortment of traditional holiday cookies and squares. This year, the boxes are expected to go fast, as they are an excellent option for gifts for clients or employees in addition to family, friends and neighbours.
Community members are encouraged to reserve their boxes in advance. Payment will be accepted on pick-up.
Christmas Treat Options:
- Small Treat Box $15 (approx. 12 pieces)
- Large Treat Box $35 (approx. 35 pieces)
To order, reserve treat boxes online at interfaithfoodbank.ca/treat-boxes. All treats are fresh baked and frozen to ensure the best presentation for your holiday celebration.
Goodies can be picked up at Interfaith Food Bank during the Christmas Market Dec. 7 between 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Invoicing is available for large orders.
