🚒🥫 Community Food Drive for the Angus Food Bank! 🥫🚒
Please take note! The amazing team at the Essa Fire Department is hosting a Food Drive in support of the Angus Food Bank on Saturday, March 14, 2026.

Firefighters will be collecting donations at:
📍 Sobeys Angus
📍 Justin & Stacey's No Frills

Every donation helps support local families in our community. If you're out shopping that day, please consider picking up a few extra non-perishable food items to donate. Your generosity can make a real difference! ❤️
Let’s come together as a community and help fill the shelves for those who need it most.

🎂 PARTY IN A BOX! 🥳
A huge SHOUTOUT and heartfelt THANK YOU to Amanda MacDuffie Campoli for her incredibly generous and thoughtful donation!
To celebrate her 40th birthday, Amanda donated 40 birthday cake boxes to the food bank. 🎈 These boxes—complete with cake mix, frosting, and all the trimmings—ensure that 40 local families in our community can celebrate their own special milestones with a smile.
Amanda, your kindness is truly inspiring. Thank you for choosing to give back to the Essa community and for proving that the best way to celebrate a big day is by brightening someone else’s.
Happy 40th Birthday from all of us at the Angus Food Bank! 🎂✨

Big hearts (and full freezers!) in our community! 🥩🙌

We want to extend a massive thank you to Country Meat Cuts & Lucy’s Kitchen for their incredible donation of 125 lbs of frozen meat! 🍖❄️

As grocery costs continue to climb, access to high-quality protein has become one of the biggest challenges for families in our area. This generous gift from the Country Meat Cuts team does more than just fill a shelf; it provides hundreds of nutritious, protein-rich meals to neighbors who need them most.
It’s local, family-run partners like Country Meat Cuts & Lucy’s Kitchen that make our community so resilient. Their ongoing commitment to giving back ensures that no one has to choose between a healthy meal and other rising expenses.
Next time you're looking for the best quality, consider supporting the business that supports us! Thank you for making a real difference. ❤️🌟

"Look at that total! 🍪💰

A massive THANK YOU to the team at the Angus Tim Hortons for their incredible donation from this year’s Holiday Smile Cookie campaign. We are absolutely blown away by the support from our local owners, the hard-working staff who decorated every cookie, and everyone in town who bought a treat.
This donation will go directly toward stocking the shelves at the Angus Food Bank and supporting Tims Camps. Your kindness is truly making our community a brighter place! "
