James and Thomas' fundraiser for Banff Food Rescue

Banff Food Rescue have recently lost a fridge and freezer due to old age, resulting in them struggling to hold as much food as they normally do. The money raised will go towards a new industrial freezer and fridge for Banff Food Rescue to allow more food to be kept for longer. Which in turn will allow Banff Food rescue to feed more people in the community.

In April 2024, James and I have set ourselves 3 challenges to raise funds for the Banff Food Rescue. The first challenge is to run to Mount Norquay and back (16km), the second challenge is to run to Sunshine Village and back (37km) and the last and toughest challenge is to run from Lake Louise to Banff (60km).

James and I volunteer at the Banff Food Rescue a few evenings per week. The Food Rescue is run solely by volunteers and its goal is to provide food security to those in need. The volunteers receive donations of good food that would be thrown out otherwise (from local grocery stores, restaurants and bakeries) and then provide a warm friendly environment in the local mall for our community to collect a bag of good quality food.
