COMMUNITY. At the dawn of its 30th anniversary, the Souper du Partage achieved the feat of reaching nearly $2 million in donations and sponsorships thanks to its annual spaghetti meal.
Since 1995, 7,500 Christmas baskets filled with food have been distributed thanks to the generosity of the community.
The organization intends to increase assistance to vulnerable families at the end of its next fundraising activity, which will be held at La Ruche secondary school on November 4.
In addition to enjoying a plate of spaghetti with the sauce that made it famous, guests will be able to see and hear the band Silk & Stone. This musical group recently presented shows at the Gala Reconnaissance Estrie and at the Centrexpo Cogeco in Drummondville. These six musicians will deliver “Top 40” hits from the 1970s to today, ranging from the Beatles to Taylor Swift.
Presented by Provigo Michel Frigon, the 29th edition of Souper du Partage aims to design and distribute around 400 Christmas baskets on December 17. Last year, 869 people benefited from this food aid, including 192 children.
Companies, businesses and individuals can contribute in different ways, as major partners, by sponsoring a family or purchasing tickets. The cost of each meal is $16 or $7 for ages 5 to 11.
Spaghetti sauce is also for sale through the organization’s online store. The deadline to place an order is October 29 or while supplies last. The 1.5 liter container is sold for $15.
