Woodstock-Oxford Rotary members have already donated 50 grocery bags to families in need. They have launched an online fundraiser, where they will match every dollar donated.
WOODSTOCK - Woodstock Rotarians have committed to with COVID-19 challenges and are asking the community to join them.
They have launched Fundraise For Food, where they will match every dollar donated to help support local families. All of the money raised will towards purchasing groceries and food vouchers, for families who require support at this time.
Woodstock-Oxford Rotary President Steve Zehr says they are working with United Way Oxford to facilitate this.
“At first, we looked at having a central food donation area with grocery distribution available to those who needed assistance. But as we investigated things, it seemed that this would not be wise with the isolation issues we are all facing. After discussions with local service agencies, it seemed more logical to work with groups already established to help people. So, we are happy the United Way Oxford is helping us, since they are working with community partners to identify pressing and immediate community needs.”
Woodstock-Oxford Rotary has already distributed 50 bags of groceries door-to-door, to families with school-age children, needing support.
Rotary has also donated two shipments of gloves to our local Woodstock Hospital. Likewise, the Woodstock Club has supported
the Salvation Army and Food Bank programs.
