We were so excited to have a group of thirty grade 11 students visit us from Osaka, Japan, through GPI North America. The students had a tour and presentation to learn what we do here from our Volunteer Coordinator, Kyoka! They also donated $200.00!The students have been learning about the food bank system here in Canada as a part of their curriculum on the UN's Sustainable Development Goals, with the second goal being "Zero Hunger".
