Members of the Mundare Fire Department took to the streets of Mundare on Dec. 7 to collect donations for the food bank.

Fire Chief Glenda Dales said, “This is our 3rd year collecting and the feedback and support from the community has been fantastic.

This year was different as we asked people to put food on their porch with their light on and we would collect curbside to ensure the comfort zone of everyone. People also dropped food items off at our last two monthly dinners.

People in Mundare are very generous as you go into the Town Office and the Food Bank corner is never empty.”

Jason Kowal, owner of Kowal Limo Service, said, “It is great the support people have been giving to the food bank this year. Stuff A Limo is in its third year. Folks have been dropping off donations at Kowal Realty or arranging for pick up with the limo.

One thing different this year is with technology people are sending e-transfers, and I go buy groceries from one of our local stores.” Kowal said friends from Edmonton, a business associate from Fort Saskatchewan, and a cousin from Chicago all sent donations using e-transfer.
