Wednesdsay October 20, 1999 THE OAKVILLE BEAVER A5 F oodban k donations fdling shelves More than 33,000 pounds of donations now stock the shelves of Oakville's Fareshare Foodbank, matching last year's Thanksgiving food drive total. "We're quite happy with the way it went. The warehouse is full," said Fareshare spokesman Dudley Clarke. "We're breathing a lot easier." The Thanksgiving drive is Fareshare's most important drive of the year, usually producing 60% of the foodbank's annual requirements. That said, local residents are encour aged to continue donations to ensure that no one goes hun gryTo that end, Clarke thanked all those who gave during the drive and all those who will do so in the future. Non-perishable items of any kind are always welcome, including baby food. The foodbank is always running out of meat products, fruit, apple juice and jam. Cash or cheques (for which income tax receipts will be issued) are also encouraged so that Fareshare can go to local stores and purchase what it requires. Cheques can be sent to 1240 Speers Rd., Unit 6, Oakville, Ontario, L6L 2X4. For more information call 847-3988. While there has been a reduction in the number of clients over the past year, Fareshare is still providing food to 240 families, or about 750 people, more than half of whom are children. In addition to food, families with children are also sup plied with a voucher redeemable at several supermarkets for such staples as milk, fruit and eggs. Fareshare Foodbank, which is run entirely by volunteers, has served needy Oakville families since 1988. No support is received or solicited from any level of government.
