As we are in the midst of the giving season, the Dauphin Neighbourhood Renewal Corporation is hoping local businesses, groups, or individuals will help them extend the life of their hot meal program.
Jason Gilmore is a Community liaison with the DNRC, and he hopes to continue feeding the people in Dauphin who need it.
"It's funded through the Red Cross, and it was a one-time opportunity to receive that funding and we can't reapply. with the funding depleted somewhat the Hot meal program as it stands right now won't be running beyond the end of January."
Gilmore says they have served around 13,000 meals this year between their breakfast and supper hot meal programs.
An arrangement with the Dauphin First United Church allows that organization to accept donations and issue tax receipts on behalf of the DNRC.
If you are writing a cheque, you are asked to put "DNRC Hot Meal Program" in the memo line.
