Volunteer for the Purolator Red Bag campaign!

We’re looking for volunteers to help us drop off red bags in neighbourhoods around Toronto on Saturday, September 19, then pick them up once they’ve been filled with food donations on Saturday, September 26.

Through this initiative, we’re aiming to collect tens of thousands of pounds of donated food for Torontonians facing hunger this Thanksgiving season. Come volunteer and join us!
