Donate money, not food. An organization can stretch your dollar much further than you can, and they know what they need more of. Hint: it's not diet food 😒
I saw a "suggested food-pantry donation items" list being forwarded around that included "lean meats," and canned vegetables because they were "low calorie." Listen.

Amazing!
This is huge news!

Even Canadians with backward nutbar beliefs will stop to help you if you're stranded on a country road. There's hope for us all.
I love 🇨🇦 Canadians. I love how they show concern and caring when something bad happens. I love how they show true interest in their fellow citizens, and usually try to help them out if able. I love how friendly they are.
Keep it up, guys! ❤️🇨🇦

In cages, hens spend every day suffering in stress, fear, & unimaginable pain 💔 Sobeys—a massive, wealthy grocer—promised to stop selling eggs from caged hens by 2025.
Yet today, 80% of Sobeys’ eggs come from birds trapped in cages. It’s time to end this abuse! #WorldEggDay
