The Food Bank collection box for Christmas hampers is now available at the front door of the Fire Hall for your non-perishable, non-expired food.  We are also accepting unwrapped toiletries and children’s toys.  Chemainus Harvest House has a special request for many pairs of new warm socks.  We will also take roll ends (or new rolls) of gift wrapping, ribbon, new Christmas cards and scotch tape for both our local Thetis Island and Chemainus Harvest House Food Banks. 
 
Thank you for your generous donations.  If you prefer to send a cheque, please make it payable to Chemainus Harvest House and drop it at the fire hall.  We empty the Food Bank Box daily.  We will cease collecting at noon on December 21st.
