I thought this was kind of cool and I thought I would pass it on. During the last year, the Salvation Army has been feeding around 100 people three times a week at the Bridge on 20th. We prepare, bring, and serve the food over there which provides a nutritious and free breakfast to those that would otherwise go without.
With the summer coming and elementary schools shutting down it means that the breakfast programs local schools run won’t be available for those that need it. The Salvation Army Community Centre decided to step into that gap and is taking it’s breakfast program on the road to four different locations, three times a week. Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, our Community Response Vehicle will be serving breakfast at:
- 8:30 to 8:50 a.m. :: The Bridge on 20th
- 9:00 to 9:15 a.m. :: 525 Avenue I South
- 9:20 to 9:35 a.m. :: King George School
- 9:40 to 9:55 a.m. :: 401 Avenue E South
This isn’t my area of the Centre (it’s a Family Services program) but I do know that they would appreciate volunteers and donations to help this program this summer. Feel free to contact Sylvia at the Centre at 242-6833 or via email at sylvia.stevenson@salvationarmysaskatoon.org.
