Dear Rosslanders,

The volunteers at the Rossland Food Bank wish to thank all who have donated, not only this year, but in past years as well to the Food Bank. Our ability to operate is totally dependent on the generosity of our donors and we deeply appreciate the support we receive.

We acknowledge with gratitude the support of the City of Rossland, Ferraro Foods, Goat FM Radio, Out of the Cellar, Rossland Beer Co., Bear Environmental, Rossland Aerie #10 Eagles, Columbia Basin Trust, Alpine Drug Mart Staff, Miner’s Hall movie night, RSS students, Rotary Interac, West Kootenay Toy Run, Rossland Thrift Shop, City of Rossland employees, Carpenter’s Union members, Safety Net Security, BC Government Employees Union members, Nelson and District Credit Union staff, Rossland Branch, Cynthia’s Yoga,  Rossland Quilters, The Discussion Group, K2 Contracting employees, Rossland Court Services, Rossland Ladies Curling Club, Rossland Firemen, and CIMS employees, TriMac Transportation Service, Trail Branch employees, St. Andrews United Church congregation, Sacred Heart Catholic Church parishioners, who have, through their joint efforts raised funds for the Food Bank as well as ongoing donations of food. We thank the individuals who faithfully make a monthly donation and the countless others who have made monetary donations or dropped off food in our basket at Ferraros. Our hearts are particularly warmed to see children requesting donations to the Food Bank in lieu of birthday presents and to those who have “gone shopping ”for the Food Bank” to remember the needs ofothers at Christmas time.

Our Food Bank is funded and stocked by Rosslanders , as well as those who have or have had a connection to Rossland. We are in awe at the level of support we receive which allows us to keep our door open. We are truly thankful.

Maureen, Luba, Colleen, Chris, Joyce, Willa and Frankie
