We are beyond grateful to the continuous generosity afforded to Cherryville Community Food & Resource Society by The Colin & Lois Pritchard Foundation. We have been absolutely blessed by this foundation and their extraordinary giving hearts! Thank You from all of us at the Cherryville Resource Society.
Thanks to Food Banks Canada, we now have a freezer safe door installed to safely store all of our perishable items. Our freezer has on average 1500-3000lbs of frozen food that is distributed to Cherryville residents through monthly hampers and food security programs. We are so grateful to have this new door installed because we no longer have to worry about losing any perishable items due to inadequate equipment. Thank you again Food Banks Canada, we are absolutely thrilled with our new door!
For more information, please contact our office to speak with either Amanda or Meghan. You are also more than welcome to email the program lead, Meghan Derkach at meghan.derkach@hotmail.com. All inquiries are welcomed 🙂
Kicking off the year with an engaging Community Art Project, spearheaded by our new Youth and Family Coordinator Maya Arcand! Maya has hit the ground running with growing our Arts & Culture programming and getting the whole community involved. Jake the Snake painted by the INCREDIBLY talented Emma Fellenz along with coloring books filled with Cherryville Landmarks really captures our vision for community building and connectedness. Jake the Snake is an ongoing community art project where all are welcome to leave a painted rock, located permanently down at Hansen Park, come and add your rock piece and lets watch him grow! If you do add a rock, take a picture and tag us on Facebook at Cherryville Youth & Families so we can follow along the adventure.
Thank you to all of our staff and volunteers who continue to represent the Cherryville Community Food and Resource Society and support our mission and vision.
