The fallout of the COVID pandemic is making it difficult for some to afford nutritious meals.
The Gilbert Plains Wish A Dish program is providing a free meal kit for residents that are struggling to make ends meet.
Gilbert Plains Rec Director, Chantal Gamache explains the idea behind the program.
“We just want to make sure everybody in our community has the opportunity to put a healthy meal on their table for themselves and their family. With the current pandemic, that’s a struggle for some so we just want to make sure everyone has that opportunity.”
Donations are being accepted towards the program to buy food for the meal kits and can be dropped off at the Gilbert Plains Municipality building.
The deadline for applications is Friday, May 22nd.
