Living Matthew 25 in 2025
Held by Sarah Lehman
Dear friends,
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! I'm hosting this Virtual Food Drive to support the Greater Vancouver Food Bank (GVFB) because the tariff war will badly hurt our neighbours with the least. Please make a donation today by clicking on the 'Donate' button at the top right.
I take inspiration for these times from Matthew 25:
"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me."
Sounds like a clear mission to me! But whether you're moved by shared faith or shared community, the GVFB deserves our trust and support. They are an incredibly efficient and top-rated non-profit, providing healthy food to all in need. Together, our donations will support children, families, seniors, individuals who will lose jobs in the export sector, and anyone who will feel the hard pinch of the 25% counter-tariff on imported American food.
Your kindness supports those most in need across Vancouver, Burnaby, New Westminster, and the North Shore. Remember that for every $1 donated, the Greater Vancouver Food Bank can double the value by buying and distrubuting essential foods for pennies on the dollar.
Online donations are tax-deductible in Canada. Please check your email inbox or spam folder for an automated tax receipt once your donation is successfully processed.
Thank you in advance for supporting my Virtual Food Drive and for all that you do to ensure that our communities weather this time together in unity and in health.
