This was the scene in the basement of McDowell’s Valumart as children filled food bags for donation to the Daily Bread Food Bank. This annual good work is organized under the auspices of Sarah’s Food Drive in Leaside and area Sarah Jordan and her sister Claire along with many friends gather food, collect donations and then prepare the bags with the help of parents and sponsors for pick up by Daily Bread. Watch as the kids carry first a frozen turkey, then get canned cranberry sauce, corn, grab a box of stuffing and jellied dessert before depositing the bag in a huge container. Realtor Patrick Rocca, seen in the video, is the sponsor of this event along with Chad McDowell. They both make a large donation to the cost. Of course Sarah and Claire’s parents, Mark Jordan and Linda DeBono were there as was Councillor Jon Burnside. There are many local business helping the drive. There are 22 such public-spirited firms named here on the Sarah’s website
