It乌鸦传媒檚 an annual spring tradition at the Central Okanagan Food Bank that Gary Bennett arrives with a wide variety of baby supplies, but this year with inflation skyrocketing and the recent baby formula recall, the donation couldn乌鸦传媒檛 have come at a better time.

All the supplies go to the food bank乌鸦传媒檚 乌鸦传媒楾iny Bundles Program乌鸦传媒�, providing some much-needed stability during this tough time. This program supports pregnant women and families who have babies up to one year old.

乌鸦传媒淲e have a lot of new parents who rely on us for these formulas, and scarcity makes this situation nerve-racking for them,乌鸦传媒� said Central Okanagan Food Bank Director of Operations Kevin Smith.

More than 40 families currently access their Tiny Bundles Program, and this generous lot of formula will help ease the minds of many local parents.

On top of the baby supplies, The Gary Bennett Family Fund donated $3,000 to the food bank乌鸦传媒檚 乌鸦传媒楴o Hungry Children Program乌鸦传媒�. This fund also supports many other programs around Kelowna including Gateway Scholarships, Strive Scholarships, school breakfast programs, and aid to the Central Okanagan Salvation Army.
