Thunder Bay Santa Bus Helps RFDA

THUNDER BAY – Thunder Bay Transit is stuffing buses. Stuffing them with food for the annual drive for the Food Bank. Transit says, “Thanks to Thunder Bay’s generous citizens, the annual Santa Bus campaign has had yet another successful year, bringing in 2,400 pounds of donated food for the Thunder Bay Food Bank”.

“To the citizens of Thunder Bay – thank you for your continued support of this important campaign,” said Jon Hendel, Planning & Marketing Analyst –Thunder Bay Transit. “Your donations are truly making a difference in our community.”

The 19th Annual Santa Bus campaign was once again organized by Thunder Bay Transit and the Amalgamated Transit Union Local 966.

Throughout the 2013 campaign, which formally ended on Dec. 16, all Thunder Bay Transit buses were accepting donations of non-perishable food items. In addition, residents could make donations at the Santa Bus itself, which was stationed at the Walmart Supercentre on Fort William Road.

All of the donated food was delivered to the Thunder Bay Food Bank on Monday.

Thunder Bay Food Bank supplies emergency help to people in need, and when possible, helps other organizations with food supply.  The need is always greater in the winter and especially over the holidays.

The Amalgamated Transit Union Local 966 and Thunder Bay Transit has served the community of Thunder Bay with safe, reliable, economical, and eco-friendly Transit service for 119 years.
