You can read about the organizations involved in the making of the bulk of goods here: shop.lite.mb.ca/products/hamper

The hamper will have ALREADY created $31K of training and employment support before it reaches recipients hands!

The bulk of the food is in a grocery gift card, allowing recipients to choose the food they want to eat.

The card will be in this beautiful holiday card designed by @vincentdesignca -- with a message and the name of the person (you?) who purchased it to give.

I want to give a huge WOW / shout out to the organizations involved in making the gifts in the hamper. I've never been so proud of us. The goods by @SNAcommunity Wolseley Family Place Cree-ations @DesignsCuttingE North End Women's Centre and @LITEwinnipeg are beautiful!

(This is what we did in a PANDEMIC! When we were all very burned out from multiple waves! When MANY of us were awaiting to know if we had funding! GAH!
Bad circumstances, all around. So I hope all of you who were involved are WOWed and proud.)

Lastly, love to @WBCommunityOrg @NorthEndRising for coming aboard as the groups to pack and deliver 450 hampers THIS week!
If you haven't seen the story last week--I'm oversharing it because I'm moved by the love and fierceness of our community--see below:
