Held at Kainai Marketplace, community members were encouraged to donate food to fill the cruiser, with all proceeds going to the Kainai Food Bank Society.

The initiative came just in time for the food bank’s Christmas hamper program, which anticipates serving anywhere between 500 and 800 families this year.
