First off, I hope you had the best Thanksgiving weekend!

We literally kicked off the long weekend in the best way possible with Thankfall at Save on Foods! (It was a serious success!)

So the week before I wanted to beat 51lbs of food and $75 donated (which was a great start!), well we totally blew that out of the water.

Last Friday we collected 141lbs of food AND $280 in cash donations/gift cards!

So many people were in the giving mood over the weekend that is known for giving and it was amazing.

Special shout out to Susan with Okotoks Transit for listening in and dropping off BAGS of personal hygiene products (one of the most needed items!).😇

And to local musician Brettyn Rose who just happened to be out shopping and of course didn't leave without donating a gift card!

It can't get over how wonderful of an afternoon it was...especially with my new friends Brenda and Arlene, volunteers with the Okotoks Food Bank, y'all they had me and the customers in stitches the entire 3 hours! 😂

Do you think we can top it this Friday? Let's try!

Come by Okotoks Safeway this Friday, October 16th, to donate to the Okotoks Food Bank!

They need and deserve all the help they can get.

Thanks to everyone who helped out thus far and of course to our fabulous sponsors: Okotoks GM, Rim 2 Rim Tire and Austen Jewellers! 😊
