The Burnaby Extreme Weather Shelter is in need of donations of food.

 

The 2011-2012 Winter Season has begun in full force

and the prepared food designated for the Extreme Weather Shelter

is quickly diminishing.

 

Burnaby’s Extreme Weather Response is opened between October and April

when the weather is deemed to be unsafe for people to be outside.

 

For people in need of a safe, warm, dry place to sleep this

Extreme Weather Shelter provides a welcoming supportive refuge.

 

A hot nutritious meal is an important part of providing comfort

to people coming in from the cold.

 

Prepared meals can be frozen at Westminster Bible Chapel  

7540 – 6th Street, Burnaby until needed.

 

Some examples of meals previously served are:

                lasagna with bread and salad, hearty soup,

                ham or turkey dinners with potatoes and vegetables,

                shepherds pie, pasta and tomato sauce.

 

If you are interested in donating food please contact

Kevan Oxley at 604-515-2728 or kevanoxley@hotmail.com

 

Thank you for your kindness to our Burnaby neighbors

who are living in extreme poverty and homelessness.

 

 Burnaby Extreme Weather Response Committee
