The London Basket Brigade is delivering ham, turkey, and vegan dinners along with a $200 grocery store gift card to 130 families in London struggling. The London Basket Brigade is also partnering up with the Jansen Christmas Toy Drive to provide less fortunate children with presents in time for Christmas morning.
Established by The Tony Robbins Foundation which formed in 1991, the International Basket Brigade feeds over two million families in nine countries each holiday season. When the local chapter debuted, recipients were recommended from Wilfrid Jury Public School. Since then Merrymount Family Support and Crisis Centre have linked several families struggling to have food, personal items, and toys to the London Basket Brigade as well.
