Our Annual Gurpurab food drive has officially kicked off! We'll miss the usual energy and foodraising efforts of our volunteers and community that come with our yearly in-person food drive. But we're excited to bring you a covid-friendly way to donate this year! Each day we will share a food item we are in need of over the next 13 days. In Punjabi, the number thirteen is pronounced tera (pronounced tay-rah) - which is a homonym for yours. Sikhs believe in EkOnkar or One Force... that encompasses the Divine Creator and it’s infinite Creation. Tera reminds us that while we may count our individual possessions, nothing is ours forever and that we must share freely with those in need. So please help us collect these food items over the next 13 days! Once you’ve collected all (or any) items, please drop off your donations at any of the locations listed below. We have contact-less drop off bins available at each of these locations to ensure your safety. Engage your kids in this fun exercise of contributing to your local community! Share your posts and show us how you are collecting your items! Drop off locations: Shiromani Sikh Sangat Gurdwara- 2377 Dunwin Road, Mississauga, Ontario, L5L 1T1 Chalo Freshco- 10615 Bramalea Road, Brampton, Ontario, L6R 3P4 Chalo Freshco- 8405 Financial Drive, Unit 11, Brampton, Ontario, L6Y 0E3 Or Contact less drop off bins at both of our locations.
