Food bank continues to shine in Wheatley

WHEATLEY — Whether you’ve been in need over the years, or made donations of food, the Wheatley Area Food Bank appreciates the support they’ve had in the community.

The Food Bank has served the community for almost 30 years.

The Food Bank has gone through some changes over the years, but the message has always been the same — they are there to help the community. With two important volunteers retiring recently, Susan Fulmer, the administrative volunteer for the food bank, is carrying on the tradition of helping people in Wheatley who may be in need.

“We’re always happy to help,” she said.

As for those who are leaving, they wanted to let the community know that they appreciate the support that the food bank has had over the years and hope that Wheatley remains as supportive going forward.

Fulmer says the food bank is always looking for donations of non-perishables.

“We are open every Tuesday morning from 9:30 to 11:30,” she said.

During those times, people can come and pick up whatever they need from the food bank’s shelves at the Baptist Church on Talbot Street East.

If you’d like to make a donation, you can call and make an appointment at 519-825-7433, extension 4. You can also send an email to info@wheatleyareafoodbank.ca
