Out of the Cold Dinner

The Out of the Cold Program offers meals and engagement to our neighbours facing food insecurity, homelessness, or social isolation. FirstOntario provided the hot dinner and Blue Wave employee volunteers to help portion the meal.

Supporting food insecurity is important to FirstOntario. Food4Kids ensures children with limited or no access to food receive a package of food for the weekend. FirstOntario's Blue Wave employee volunteers helped assemble the packages so they can be delivered on Friday.
