Dear Lower Mainland Eats Members,

The holiday season is upon us and many people are struggling. LME is sharing this initiative encouraging our 55,000+ members to consider donating a portion of the cost of a meal (or two) to serve the needs of 5 local food distribution organizations. This is a wonderful opportunity to kick off the season of giving by gifting a hearty meal to someone in need.

This fundraiser will be held online via GoFundMe from November 23rd to December31. The donations will be distributed to the following organizations equally: Greater Vancouver Food Bank, Food Banks BC, Surrey Food Bank, SHARE (Tri-Cities), and the Tri-Cities Moms Group hampers. All of these organizations provide food year-round, so donating today will feed someone tomorrow!

Our goal is to raise a minimum of $5,000, so let's FILL THE PANTRY together!

Tax Receipts: As this is a community endeavour, we will not have the resources to issue tax receipts for donations and will not be claiming any tax receipts ourselves. If this is a priority, please donate directly to each charity: Greater Vancouver Food Bank, Food Banks BC, Surrey Food Bank, SHARE Family and Community Services
