This Ramadan, we at Parkdale Community Food Bank are proud to partner with Eternal Virtue to provide dates to our community. Providing culturally relevant foods to all of our community is a priority for us, and that is why we reached out to Eternal Virtue. Our values align around compassion, service, and showing up when it matters most for the community. Within hours, their team launched a campaign, and only a few days later, the first funds were sent to purchase the dates.β¨
We are so grateful for partners who move quickly and lead with heart. Thank you, Eternal Virtue, for your partnership in supporting the community this Ramadan! ππ
