It has been a challenging few years for our community. From the impact of the pandemic, to economic challenges, more people than ever need our collective support. The Business Cares Food Drive will be kicking off again on Dec. 1, 2022 and we would truly appreciate any level of support that you feel comfortable in sharing.
The Covid-19 pandemic may have changed how we interact with each other in 2020, but it hasn’t changed the fact that many Londoners find themselves in need. The Business Cares Food Drive is set to kick off its annual campaign -- even if things may look a little different this year.
Though the colder weather may still be a few weeks away, there's no better time than now to start getting into the spirit of giving! The Business Cares Food Drive, in support of the London & Area Food Bank is gearing up for what we know will be another successful campaign thanks to the generosity of Londoners and London businesses.
This year's campaign official kicks off on Nov. 29, 2019 with a ceremony at Western University's London Hall. The campaign runs through Dec. 20. And we wanted to reach out to you today to ask you to start planning your support.
Londoners answered the call and proved once again that taking care of business means taking care of people, as the Business Cares Food Drive collected a record 443,000 pounds worth of food and cash donations for this year's campaign.
The 2018 Food Drive -- the 19th annual campaign -- concluded today with its day of giving and the 443,000 pounds represents a 1.8 per cent increase over last year's record total.
Every year, we're amazed at the generosity of businesses throughout London and surrounding area. And Magna Qualtech Seating Systems has long been a staunch supporter of the Business Cares Food Drive.
This year was no different as, today, the team came through with an incredibly generous donation of $36,275 for the Business Cares Food Drive.
There's still time to donate and help the Food Bank and the over two-dozen organizations that it supports throughout our community. Visit businesscares.ca for more details.
Tomorrow marks the official start of the Business Cares Food Drive and we hope you'll be able to join us!
It all gets underway Friday morning at 10 a.m. at Western University's London Hall, where we'll be officially kicking off the campaign in "Grand" style. You're welcome to join us as we talk about the impact that Business Cares has on the London Food Bank and the organizations it supports, and set this year's goals.
'Tis almost the season! But there's no need to wait to support the 2018 Business Cares Food Drive.
We're only a couple of weeks away from our official Business Cares 2018 kickoff. Our committee has been meeting for just over a month now and there are some exciting events coming up.
On the stage, on the ice, over the airwaves, and in grocery stores and businesses throughout the region, it's going to be a "Grand" kick-off to the 2017 Business Cares Food Drive in support of the London Food Bank.
Tomorrow morning, the 2017 Business Cares Food Drive campaign officially kicks off at Western University's London Hall.
There's only one month to kickoff for the annual Business Cares Food Drive, but that doesn't mean you can't hit the ground running December 1st by getting a head start now!
The holiday season comes faster that you think -- and, to avoid the rush, we encourage you to register your business now or sign up to be a volunteer! And if you want to start collecting donations before we officially launch, we promise not to tell anyone!
We are pleased to announce that as of campaign's end this morning, the Business Cares Food Drive has collected over 307,800 pounds worth of food and cash donations in support of the London Food Bank.
We want to thank all the businesses who stepped up, joined the campaign, and encouraged Londoners to donate.
We want to thank all Londoners who gave so generously and so often to help those who need it most.
And we want to thank all of our partners who helped provide venues and opportunities for people to participate in the campaign.
The need is real and it's growing. During the leanest times, London's business community has consistently showed the depth of its compassion. We are calling on you again to lend whatever support you feel comfortable in sharing. Learn how you can donate to the cause.
