As some
of you may know, I am on the Board of Directors for SHARE. (SHARE Family & Community Services Society,which is
a non- profit, independent, community based organization providing
leadership and programs in response to the social needs of the residents of the
Tri-Cities (Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Port Moody, Anmore and Belcarra), New
Westminster and adjacent communities.
SHARE Family & Community Services exists so that vulnerable individuals and families in the Tri-cities, Anmore and Belcarra have the opportunity to pursue the life they choose.)

I am
writing to ask for your help to Feed and Free SHARE Bear. SHARE Bear is hungry
and has been looking for food in all of the wrong places and has been caught!
In reality, of
course, I'm helping to get the word out that the Food Bank needs support over
the summer. As you may recall, it's the time of year where our food supply
reaches critical levels and we need your help to feed those who need it
most.
Our goal is to
raise $10,000 in bail money and 10,000 lbs. of food to get him (and the most
vulnerable in the Tri-Cities) through the summer months. Another
great way to give is to bring the family come and free the bear yourself
You’re invited to
Feed and Free SHARE Bear
Where: Coquitlam Centre, H&M entrance.
Where: Coquitlam Centre, H&M entrance.
When: Thursday,
June 20th Noon to 6:00 pm.
Goals: Raise
$10,000 and 10,000 pounds of food or more.
If you are
interested in following SHARE Bear’s exploits, you can also follow us on
Facebook.
Thanks again for
your help.
PS: Hunger doesn't
take a summer vacation and throughout the year, 43% of our Food Bank recipients
are children. If you would like more information on this campaign or
about the food bank please contact Kate Lawrence directly at 604.529.5119
or Katherine.Lawrence@sharesociety.ca
If you do not live in the Tri-Cities, I would encourage you to support your local food bank as this is a time of year that they need help.
