Take Home A Box This Sunday

May 1st we are asking every family at Highview to take home a box and fill it with cans. Bring the filled box back Sunday, May 8 for a fun event that will be part of our interactive, intergenerational Mother's Day Service - It's Not Easy Being the World's Future. The cans will be part of the FILL A FREIGHT TRUCK event on June 4 - Highview's Love KW project this year, linked to the youth initiative Epicentre. All of it ends up at the Food Bank to help feed hungry people right here in our own region. THANKS!
