Wowza! This is what 200 meals, cookies, muffins and packs of trail mix looks like! Our club organized a 5th meal delivery during the pandemic. Our care packages were in support of some folks supported by The Skills Society.
Thank you SO much to our members, friends and family of the club, YEG Passport Club members & Glenora Club Members for your generous donations! Thank you to Rahim and Rooster Cafe for supporting our project again!
