The 100 Mile House Food Bank is very active in the community providing food and other items to individuals and families in danger of suffering hunger and malnutrition because of poverty.
Currently there are approximately 1,900 residents in 100 Mile House and the food bank was established in 1973 and moved to its current location in 2009.
"The 100 Mile Food Bank Society is very pleased to report a highly successful seasonal distribution of its Christmas hampers.
Executive director Bob Hicks says the hampers went out on Dec. 19 to feed 504 people with a total of 13,806 pounds of food inside them.
“It was a great success thanks to the community,” he says, adding other very large donations also came in from municipalities across British Columbia and even Alberta."
