The 40 Hot Meal Project will soon start to deliver on its pledge to feed Hatters in need.
It’s a remarkable turnaround for an initiative launched in the hours following Tuesday’s announcement the province would be going into a second COVID-19 lockdown.
The idea of The Hot Meal Project is to encourage local companies and individuals to donate $250 which in turn will go to provide local restaurants negatively impacted by the new restrictions some income in return for 40 prepared meals that will go to Hatters in need.
“It’s a program that helps so many people at a time of the year when people deserve the help,” organizer Torrey Mattson says in his Facebook post on Tuesday evening.
