On October 4, Daily Bread Food Bank joined forces with Purolator and the Toronto Argonauts for the fourth annual Tackle Hunger game — and Argos fans once again rose to the occasion!
Before kickoff, Daily Bread volunteers were stationed at every BMO Field gate, collecting food and funds from fans as they arrived for the game. The enthusiasm and generosity from Argos supporters helped make this one of the most successful Tackle Hunger games yet.
During the third quarter, Neil Hetherington, CEO of Daily Bread Food Bank, and Natalie McGlynn, Manager, Events and Sponsorship for Purolator, took to the field to accept a cheque and announce the impressive total: 20,253 pounds of food collected — a strong display of community spirit and support for families facing food insecurity across Toronto.
Thank you to Purolator, the Toronto Argonauts, and fans who donated for helping us tackle hunger. Your generosity helps ensure that everyone in Toronto has access to the food they need.
Donate today to ensure everyone has access to the nutritious food they need.
