Christmas can be a tough time for Donovan McAlpine. The man from Saskatoon lives at Sherbrooke Community Centre. Like for other residents of long-term care homes, the holiday season can be a lonely time for McAlpine.
The annual Make the Season Kind campaign will be virtual again this year. The public can support the Community Food Sharing Association by making a donation online: visit: www.cbc.ca/bekind.
In the past 13 months, the group’s seven members have travelled from one doorstep to the next, collecting more than 1,000 kilograms of goods for Edmonton's Food Bank, hundreds of dollars in charitable donations, and school supplies for young students.
