Nikki & Patricia – The Local

Nikki Powers

Nikki's Day at The Local

Nikki Powers, an agent here with Tradition has chosen to donate to The Local Community Food Centre. She chose this organization because it is a place where they’re creating access to good food to everyone, judgement free. The Local not only brings access to food to those in need, they also have food skills programs tailored for children, caregivers, seniors, and those who live alone.

The Local Community Food Centre continues to make a significant impact by bringing meals to our community and connecting people together with good food and good company. They have community access markets twice a week which offers fresh local fruits, vegetables, meats, and pantry items all at wholesale prices with a Pay if Forward program.

Nikki spent her volunteer day cleaning, organizing, and preparing pamphlets, in preparation for their Annual General Meeting and open house on July 24th. Our community is fortunate enough to have these important and needed services offered by The Local. Their mission needs our community support and could always use more volunteers who generously give their time and hard work.

Patricia's Day at The Local

The Local Community Centre provides nutritious meals, fresh produce, and more to community members in need. They also welcome the entire community to join in.

Patricia selected The Local because she believes in the importance of good food and helping those in need. She spent her day preparing for The Local’s Annual General Meeting. Patricia and other volunteers cleaned around the building, as well as inside. They also helped to organize the handouts that attendees would receive. 

Patricia’s experience as a Rotarian in the City of Stratford has shown her how appreciative organizations such as The Local are of any volunteer assistance.

"It is important to give back."
