SurreyCares’ second annual “Toonies For Tomorrow” food security campaign officially launches February 1-23
SurreyCares Community Foundation’s second annual “Toonies for Tomorrow” campaign officially begins February 1 and until February 23. Proceeds from the Toonies For Tomorrow campaign will benefit the Food For Everyone Fund. This fund was created with the goal of increasing food security and reducing hunger in Surrey. Beneficiaries will include community kitchens, gardens, and other low-barrier programming to secure the fund’s objectives. “Give a toonie today; change someone’s tomorrow.”
