WALKERTON, Ont. Members of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) Local 255 have donated $11,000 to regional food banks.
At this time of year particularly, it’s a pleasure to give to others who are not as fortunate as we, said Sherry Anstett, recording secretary for CUPE Local 255.
The local is a composite local with units at Westario, Bruce Telecom, the Municipality of Wellington North, Bruce County Highways and the Municipality of Arran Esderslie, all of whom were involved in the donations.
Among food banks that received money are the Walkerton and District Food Bank, North Huron Community Food Share, Kincardine Food Bank, Bruce Food Bank, the Lucknow Food Bank and the Elmwood Food Bank.
We don’t just work in the region, said treasurer Carrie Bramham. We’re also members of the community and we care about our friends and neighbours.
