LIFECENTRE FOOD BANK

In 2006, Joseph’s Storehouse was established as a food pantry by local residents, Bob and Pauline Giroux. It was the first community-run food bank to help meet the needs of Blackburn Hamlet residents. In the Fall of 2011, the operation of Joseph’s Storehouse was renamed Lifecentre Food Bank to continue the great work of Bob and Pauline retired. Every month more than 150 families of Blackburn Hamlet benefit from having a local food bank.
