“It’s a simple way to give to the community in which you live.”

As a retired teacher, Lynda understands the importance of helping others, and the role food plays for children when it comes to school success, health, and happiness.

Lynda has been a valued supporter of Food Banks Mississauga for over 5 years. It was during the pandemic that she truly felt the importance of supporting her neighbours.

“I saw how difficult it was for families. All at home, lost jobs, other volunteer organizations shut down. I wanted to help.”

Lynda is proud to be a part of the Food Banks Mississauga community.

“They’re doing such important work, and they’re non-judgemental, flexible, and caring to the people they serve.”

Lynda also gives her time as a volunteer and encourages others to join her.

“It’s a simple, easy way to give to the community in which you live.”

For anyone in need of support, Lynda has words of welcome.

“We are happy to help however we are able to. Don’t hesitate to seek help if you need it!”

THANK YOU to Lynda and all of our amazing donors and volunteers! We couldn’t do this important work without you by our side!
