Hunger Awareness Week

At Multi Shelter Solutions, we are committed to helping eliminate food insecurity and people going hungry. During the pandemic earlier this year, we were fortunate to be considered an essential service due to providing structures to grow food and take care of various equipment, animals and other tasks on the farm.

We have helped numerous food banks, particularly associated with schools, to help grow food for the people who need to use them. Partnering with schools, this also allows the ability to teach the kids how to grow the food that they, and their families, are eating.

This future planning and thinking is a sustainable way for all of humanity. With this week being Hunger Awareness week, we want to highlight this special cause and initiative, that is needed all year long. Through our Giving Back program at Multi Shelters, we have donated to various charities that provide food, as well as donating structures to communities in need. If you or someone you know has an organization that could benefit from this, please reach out and have a discussion from Norm about how Multi Shelters can partner with you to help make food insecurity a less prominent concern in our society. And please, if you see someone in need and can help, please do. We are all connected, we are all one.

Giving Back Greenhouse Opportunity

Multi Shelters values working with communities to help with charity and non-profit situations needing an extra boost of help, that we can give back whenever possible.

We have a wonderful opportunity coming up next week that we would like to share with you. Norm has been working closely with Johnny Theriault School and the community of Aroland First Nations, north of Thunder Bay. They are receiving a 20×48 Greenhouse for the school to use for teaching, and the community for fresh food. The community is quite excited for this opportunity and we are grateful to be part of the anticipation.

We would like to thank Breakfast Club of Canada for the opportunity of partnering with them to supply this greenhouse project. Norm will have to opportunity of meeting with the children and will be able to explain how this greenhouse will be used to produce some local fresh food.

We feel very grateful and fortunate to be involved with projects like this.
