Armstrong Regional Co-Op running food drive ahead of the holidays

Armstrong Regional Co-Op (ARC) is running a food drive to ensure people have meals this holiday season.

The company is encouraging people to make donations of non-perishable food items at its gas stations or liquor stores, with all the food then going to support local food banks.

“With food bank usage in Canada at an all-time high, it’s more important than ever to support children and families in the battle against hunger,” Jason Keis, Armstrong Regional Cooperative’s Marketing & Community Relations Manager, stated.

People who make a donation will be entered into a draw for a $50 gas card. One card will be given away at every site.
