The Nottawasaga Foundation presented a cheque for $10,500 to the local food banks of Alliston, Tottenham, and Angus.
Each food bank received a $3,500 donation which will be used to stock their shelves in preparation of the upcoming Christmas holiday as well as provide additional support for their continuous efforts throughout the year.
To date, with this donation, The Nottawasaga Foundation has given a total of $253,500 or $84,500 to each of the three individual food banks.
