This week marks the big push to gather canned food for the annual Ecumenical Canned Food Drive, a widely-based food bank project spearheaded by nine churches in South Bayview. Next Saturday, November 29, by 9.30 a.m. or so, trucks will be passing through our neighborhoods to pick up non-perishable food from local porches for the drive. The hub of organization will be Our lady of Perpetual Help Church at St. Clair East and Clifton Rd. and at Leaside Presbyterian Church. 670 Elginton Ave. E at Hanna Road. The organizers invite anyone who wishes to volunteer to sort and box the food to attend either OLPH or Leaside Presbyterian on Saturday morning. They also remind us that students can earn community volunteer hours. Other churches that support the drive are Leaside United, Rosedale Presbyterian, Rosedale United, St. Anselm, St Augustine’s, St. Cuthbert’s and Northlea United. 43rd Annual Community Canned Food Drive
