A Belleville hotel company has made a large donation to help with food insecurity in the region.
Gleaners Food Bank Director of Operations Susanne Quinlan announced a $10,000 cheque was received from the Williams Hotel Group.
Spokesperson Ryan Williams says he is challenging Quinte businesses, including members of the Belleville Chamber of Commerce to support Gleaners.
In 2023, the food bank and the Tri-County Warehouse, supplied 11,884 food hampers and 12,468 sandwiches and refreshments at Michelangelo’s Cafe for those needing food and drink.
There were 1.5 million pounds of food also distributed to this region’s food banks, meal programs and nonprofit programs.
