Acton Foodshare wishes to rec- ognize the contribution of its volun- teers for the average of 70 hours per week of service. The Foodshare is fortunate, in these trying times, to receive the support of the surrounding commu- nities, area churches and businesses and its citizens, without whom Foodshare would incur difficulty in, meeting its mission. Acton Foodshare uses funds raised) through donations (Foodshare receives no government * grants) for the purchase of neces- sary foodstuffs and especially chil- dren’s foods to serve the needs for school lunches and pre-school chil- -dren. Acton Foodshare assists the Dine and Dash, Acton Breakfast Club when perishable goods are received at Foodshare and are unable to be used before their expiry or in the case of cracked eggs or perishable fruits or vegetables that must be used as soon as possible, — Acton Foodshare is attempting at all times tovassist clients to attain total independence without the use of the Foodshare program. Some programs have included: clients visiting Foodshare are encouraged to retrain and go back to school; North Halton Literacy Guild has met at Foodshare; Public Health Nurses run a program Tuesday morning with parenting programs for parents and children; a volunteer grandmother cares for children during the program; Community gardens - sponsored by the Deacons of Bethel Reformed Church, Acton Horticultural Society and Acton Foodshare, land _ has been promised and plans are under way with a local student from Trent University as coordina- tor.
