We've heard of Advent calendars, but have you heard of a Reverse Advent Calendar? As we think about giving this Christmas season, consider participating in the Reverse Advent Calendar project.

We encourage each person to fill an empty box or basket with non-perishables over the period of 24 days leading up to Christmas. When it is filled, donate it to our Bridges Food Bank program or to the local food bank. Challenge your friends, family, or neighbours to participate too, whether they do it on their own or together with you!

Learn more and get the calendar at glencairn.ca/reverse-advent
