COBS is again running its annual Hot Cross Bun fundraiser in support of The Food Sharing Project.
Between now and April 2nd, customers will be asked if they want to donate to The Food Sharing Project.
If you mention Truedell, a portion of your purchase is also donated to the school when you visit COBS.
Why is Donating to the Food Sharing Project Important?
Since 1985, The Food Sharing Project has provided nutritious food to schools across Kingston, Frontenac and Lennox & Addington. Educators, and research, tell us that students who have access to healthy food can focus better on their academic tasks, are more engaged in their learning, and have more positive social interactions. Student nutrition programs at schools can take many forms, but they all offer healthy food that is accessible to any student who needs nutrition in a stigma-free environment, supported by caring adults.

And in the more recent past, Women's Marches have taken place across the world. Celebrate how far women have come with this inspiring read!
