The Township of Esquimalt and its CUPE employees made an early Christmas delivery to the Esquimalt Neighbourhood House on Friday December 20th in the form of two large pallets of donated food, weighing an estimated 650 pounds. Donations for the drive were collected from generous residents during regularly scheduled garbage pickup days in December and also accepted at the Municipal Hall and Public Works Yard. Acting Mayor Lynda Hundleby and Public Works employees were on hand to present the donated food to Esquimalt Neighbourhood House Executive Director Mary Lynn McKenna and Board Chair Brian Mee.

THANK YOU ESQUIMALT FOR YOUR DONATIONS AND TO EVERYONE INVOLVED IN THE 2014 PUBLIC WORKS CHRISTMAS FOOD DRIVE.
