Just recently, the Lotus Light Charity Society (LLCS) partnered with Superstore locations across metro Vancouver to donate over 6000 pounds of non-perishable grocery food items to low-income families and service organizations. Some items donated include canned food, dry food, and pasta.
Since the unexpected prolonging of the Covid-19 pandemic, greater numbers of low-income families have been facing issues of food insecurity. Last week, the LLCS donated 50 cases of premium yogurt to the Surrey Muslim Food Bank to be distributed to low-income families in the community.
On the same day, the LLCS donated more than 30 cases of fresh produce and fruit, canned pasta, and frozen meat to organizations serving low-income families and people in need. Some recipients included Coquitlam and Surrey low-income families, Powell Street Getaway Resources Centres, and the Strathcona Centre Food Hub.
The LLCS would like to thank corporate and individual sponsors, our volunteers, and our community partner organizations for their continued generosity and support during the Covid-19 pandemic.
