In mid-March, the Salvation Army Food Bank in Williams Lake had empty shelves as the number of people accessing food banks rises.

United Way BC (UWBC) is appealing to the public for donations to help British Columbians in the Thompson-Nicola and Cariboo regions put food on the table. 

“Imagine having to choose between paying rent or buying food, affording a bus ride to work or walking an hour and a half before and after an eight-hour shift,” said Alžběta Sabová, director of Food Security with UWBC.
