On behalf of Michelle Gray (Manager) and Dave Friesen (Asst. Mgr) of Millcroft Metro and the rest of the team at Appleby and Upper Middle, they recognized that the past year had been very difficult for many of the community members and as such, the employees wanted to spread some cheer. During the month of December, employees were actively collecting donations and they were thrilled by the dedication of their staff and the kindness from their customers. Today, they presented a cheque to the Food Bank for $5,508 to assist those in need in the community.

In addition, Metro will also be sharing $1,040 in gift cards to the Salvation Army. Robin thanked Metro in return for their other initiatives through Feed Ontario such as Feed Ontario’s One More Bite Program which provides food banks in Ontario the opportunity to receive reclaimed fresh food from their local Metro-banner grocery stores to distribute to adults and children living with hunger in their communities.
