CANADIAN HICKORY FARMS, LTD.
– HOLIDAY GIFT BASKET TO NOURISH
CHILDREN’S POTENTIAL
Since 2017, Hickory Farms has been a valued partner of the Club
and nutritious food for children across Canada. From October to
December, across its stores, Hickory Farms puts on sale the
Holiday Sweet & Snack Gift Basket to benefit the organization.
Highly popular, the sale of baskets helps provide nutritious
breakfasts for school children and helps spread the Club's
mission and raise awareness of the cause.
“We love knowing that we are helping to provide the necessary
food fuel children need to excel in their day-to-day lives.”
A FUNDRAISER IN HONOR OF A
MOTHER AND FORMER VOLUNTEER
In memory of wife and mother Eva Cheung, who passed away
in April 2023, the family selected the Club as the beneficiary
of this special fundraiser. Prior to her retirement, Eva worked
as a special education assistant at Sir William Osler High School
and had a very deep love for the kids and people that she worked
with. This love was so deep that she would go in early to volunteer
with the breakfast club that was organized by the school. It was
important to the family that donations went to an organization
that helps to ensure that all students have reliable access to
nutritious food in a safe and supportive environment, to
positively impact health and learning. Over $4,800 was raised.
