The fundraiser will aim to start the conversation on homelessness and affordable housing as it will premiere a documentary and host a panel discussion on January 17.
Like many food banks across Ontario, the Guelph Food Bank has seen a spike in demand for their services. But donations are down, so the food bank had to get creative to raise funds to keep their food programs going.
50 percent of the proceeds from the sale of the cookies from the Guelph locations will go to the food bank. The Holiday Smile Cookie campaign runs until Sunday.
