Dear Willows Families and Teachers,

This Thanksgiving, Willows PAC is inviting the community to participate in a Food Drive to support the Mustard Seed Food Bank. The Mustard Seed serves approximately 5,000 individuals each month, including families with children in Victoria. More about the Mustard Seed can be found at https://mustardseed.ca

The Willows Thanksgiving Food Drive will run from Tuesday, Sept 28 until Friday, Oct 8.
