On January 22, the LLCS Food Recovery Program, with support from No Frills (@310 W. Broadway), donated a dozen cases (200+ lbs) of frozen pizza, dinner entrees, ice cream, and fruit to the DTES Women’s Emergency Shelter.
The DTES Women’s Emergency Shelter, located at 412 E. Cordova Street is a drop-in shelter for women who are homeless, hard-to-house, or at risk of domestic violence. This shelter provides a safe, non-judgemental environment for DTES women of all backgrounds. The center advocates for these women and provides them with meals, counseling, and other resourceful programs to nurture and empower them.
The ladies at the shelter were very happy to receive this donation. The LLCS sincerely thanks Joti from the No Frills location on W. Broadway for making this donation possible.
