With the help of many volunteers, says Erin Katerynych, executive director of the Empty Stocking Fund - Battlefords District Food and Resource Centre, they were able to hand out 425 hampers and gave out almost 800 gifts for children.
The WPD EMS Elves collected three packed ambulances full of toys for the Empty Stocking Fund.
The Loraas Business Food Drive collected 6,680 pounfd of food from the community and dropped it off for the ESF. The food collected over the holiday season will help those in need well into the new year.
Katerynych thanks the community for all their support.
“Without this amazing community’s contributions we would not be able to ‘Share the Joy’”.
