The Bayfield Area Food Bank is nearing its goal of essential renovations needed to start operating in their new home.
After the food bank was displaced by the sale of their former location, they were able to secure a space from the Municipality of Bluewater with a nominal lease fee which opens up long term stability.
Officials say they are now just $30,000 away from completing the essential renovations needed to start operating in their new space.
Claire Trepanier, President of the Bayfield Area Food Bank says this is more than just a building, its about responding to the increased demand in the community and making sure that no one has to face food insecurity alone.
Donations to support the final $30,000 can be made online at BAFB.ca.
