www.oakvillebeaver.com The Oakville Beaver, Friday April 13, 2007 - 25 Cub collects food Food drive ends Sunday Fareshare Food Bank's annual Easter Food Drive continues until Sunday. The first of its two large annual food drives began March 31 and will continue until Sunday, April 15. Fareshare depends on this food drive to stock its shelves with nonperishable food items to last much of the year. According to Dudley Clarke, a volunteer who not only looks after Fareshare's books, but many other facets of the operation, too, the Easter and Thanksgiving food drives bring in between 75 to 80 per cent of the food Fareshare needs over the year. "In 2006, we averaged 317 family visits per month, which was a significant increase from the 302 per month in 2005," said Clarke. In early 2007, Fareshare served about 310 families though that jumped to 330 in March. So far the Easter food drive has collected about eight per cent more than last year and that has Clark smiling as more than half of the over 1,100 persons being served are children. For the drive, the food ban remains open 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. All Oakville fire stations are also accepting donations to Fareshare and the food bank has special bins at all Oakville grocery stores into which residents can contribute food. "Donations of all non-perishable foods are welcome, but the items we invariably run short of are canned fruit, canned vegetables, except corn, canned tomatoes and instant coffee," said Clarke. Donations of money are also a mainstay of the food bank. For information or to donate, visit Fareshare at 1240 Speers Rd., Unit 6 or call 905-847-3988. &$^#%&&^$!#~?...$499 LEASE...
