At Franco Freshy, we try to live by the Golden Rule and truly believe in
the value of doing good deeds. We have always tried to help
those in need through our food donations to the shelters in the
GTA, our support of numerous charity events for our clients and,
our support of mission work among the impoverished in other
parts of the world. This year, we have become inspired to try
to accomplish even more by launching our “Do
A Good Deed Campaign”
whereby we will match your personal or your company’s monetary
contribution DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR (up to a maximum of $100,000.00
for our current fiscal year)Your monetary contribution can
start as low as $25.00. Together, our charitable dollars will
go twice as far!
We will
supply freshly made, nutritious meals (not leftovers) for anyone
in need. You can specify the food that you would like to have
donated, the needy individual or the charitable organization
that you would like to benefit or you can let us do it for you.
We are equipped to send one or a series of individual meals or,
pans of food delivered to homes or shelters. We will include a
card with our food donation naming you or your company as our joint
donor.
Most
recently, in cooperation with one of our corporate clients, we
were able to help a single mother feed her family during a
period when one of her children, a cancer patient, was sent home
from hospital without any hope of survival. Our staff expressed
pure joy at being able to provide assistance to someone that
they had never previously known. It does feel good to do a good
deed. TRY IT, YOU’LL LOVE IT! Give us a call today!
