FOOD Advent Project

Six parishes are combining their efforts again this year to support our neighbours who use the services provided by Feeding Others of Dartmouth (FOOD) and other local charities.

We will be filling backpacks and gift bags with useful items and treats. We need your help!

Parishes will have bags available each week, take one of these bags home with you and return it to the parish by Thursday, December 13th.

We invite the young and old of all parishes to come and sort items and fill backpacks.

When: Saturday, December 15th

10:30-12:30

Storm Date Sunday, December 16th at 1:30
