Monday, October 5–Monday, October 12

This Thanksgiving, the Namaste North community is coming together to support local families experiencing food insecurity.

Our goal is to fill four large collection bins with food and essential items by Thanksgiving. You’ll find the bins and a community challenge board in the studio from October 5–12.

We’re collecting items including:

• Toothpaste and toothbrushes

• Shampoo, soap and deodorant

• Feminine hygiene products

• Diapers and baby wipes

• Canned goods

• Pasta and rice

• Peanut butter

• Other pantry staples

When you donate, find the matching item on the board and mark off a square so everyone can watch our progress.

Once the collection is complete, Namaste North will match every item donated. If our community contributes 100 items, we’ll add another 100. Let’s fill all four bins and double what we’re able to give to Barrie Food Bank.

Bring your donations to the studio between October 5 and 12.
