year. The Goodfellows will then sort the collected food and distribute to the needy on Saturday, December 18. The Goodlfellows are still looking for volunteers for the basket program. Volunteers must be adults who are fully vaccinated and can wear a mask while working with other volunteers. If you’d like to volunteer, please call 226-7828334. In 2020, the Goodfellows were forced to pivot as the COVID-19 cases started to rise dramatically. They cancelled the Christmas Basket program and gave all those needy families who applied a grocery gift card. They gave out about 200 gift cards to families in 2020. Now with 2021 appearing to be a little less frightening Covid-wise, the Goodfellows are poised to continue their basket program, which will see each recipient family get a turkey along with canned goods and produce. There are still two days left to apply for this
year’s Christmas Basket program. You can stop in at the Leamington Municipal Building on Thursday, November 25 and Tuesday, November 30 from 1 to 4 pm and apply in per-
son. About 15 companies and businesses have donated goods for the baskets. The Goodfellows are also looking for cash donations. You can drop off
cash in their designated box at the Leamington Post Office or mail a cheque to Leamington Goodfellows, P.O. Box 242, Leamington, Ontario N8H 2P6.
THE GIFT CK A SUCCESS
WHEATLEY — The citizens of Wheatley were again called upon to help those less fortunate and they came through with flying colours. As part of a Chatham-Kent wide program, The Gift CK, a contingent of over 30 volunteers took to the streets around town and garnered a haul of food, toys and household items. All donated items remain in the immediate community with items going to the food bank and Community Chest. This Wheatley-Based group was among hundreds of volunteers combing the streets of Chatham-Kent on Saturday, November 20. Quinn Bowman, holding his trusted helper Micky, stands with a portion of happy helpers and volunteers as they celebrate another successful campaign to help those in need in the community.
