Vice Chair Angela Johnston accepted 10 cases of toilet paper this weekend donated by Davedi Club President Vince Orlando and Vice President Sandro Cipparrone.
That's 480 rolls toward this year’s campaign for the North Bay Food Bank.
Orlando stated that his club honoured to help our community.
"The Davedi Club is all about families, working together to help one another and we know that this year has been hard on everyone and can only hope that the future gets better for everyone's sake. But until things improve I can only hope that those that can help others will step forward to do what they can."
Vice Chair Angela Johnston reports 11,511 rolls of toilet paper have been received, and with less than a week to go "We need your help more this year than ever! We know that lockdown and stay at home has a major impact on how we normally are outside stores to collect toilet paper for the food banks but with COVID-19 we have to keep everyone safe, but the need is still real."
She is asking that when out getting your weekly groceries to drop off a package or two in the TP Blue Bins Provided at the local grocery store.
"Today's a reminder that with a week still to go to reach our 20,000 rolls we are currently at 11,511. We know that North Bay has always come to the aid of many causes to help each other and I am sure that in the next 6 days we can get there together," added Johnston.
