How You Can Help!
Grassroots Kind Hearts Society is run by a dedicated team of volunteers. Like most groups / organizations we run into operating costs such as food and serving supplies. We feed our Elders, family and friends 7 nights per week from 5pm - 6pm at the RADIANT LIFE CHURCH, in downtown Campbell River, BC. Our volunteers purchase food out of their own pockets and make nutritious and warm home cooked meal often placing themselves in financial hardship. We are truly grateful at those who give and serve. Any local food gift cards would be greatly appreciated. We're incredibly appreciative of our volunteers and community supporters. (READ ABOUT US IN THE NEWS)
