Almost 200 volunteers gathered Saturday for the Daily Bread Food Bank's first in-person food sorting event since the COVID-19 pandemic began.
It's one of the reasons why volunteers like Chun-Yip Hon came out.
"We're fortunate that we have a steady income, but we are feeling the impact on our wallet ourselves. So for the people who have a lower income or are less fortunate, certainly they would feel the impact." "It's essential to understand how lucky you are as an individual, and the things that you do have, by supporting those that may not have that same opportunity at that moment," said Devan.Mayor John Tory also came out to help, saying he's volunteered with the food bank for about a decade. He says it's an important way to show thanks to volunteers and the food bank helping those in need.
