The Canadian Food Grains Bank (CFGB) is an in- terdenominational ting 12 Canadian church partners, with its headquarters in Winnipeg. This organization collects donated grain and cash; it then co-ordinates the purchase and shipment of the grain to partner churches located in areas where food is scarce. Each donation is matched 4:1 by the federal government through the Canadian International Development Agency. The local co-ordinator for Ontario is Sea - forth -area resident Jim Papple. The Huron -Perth chapter has been very active, us- ing "growing projects" as a means of utilizing local skills and talents. These "growing projects" have take root and are spreading over all of Ontario, with 20-25 recorded projects in 1994. One of the largest is a 114 acre project near Seaforth, but there are many suc- cessful projects in other areas. The projects in the Huron -Perth area raised about $70,000 for the CFGB in 1994; and more are planned for 1995. With the federal matching of 4:1 this means that approximately $350,000 will be used to help feed hungry people in other countries. Other communities use different methods to con- tribute to this worthy cause. Hensall United Church is having their seventh annual CFGB beef luncheon on February 23 at the Hensall United Church. Many churches will hold events during February and early March to raise money, or to receive donations of grain. In 1994 the various church and community groups raised over $22,000 in contributions to the CFGB. All donations are tax deductible. ,The feder- al government has recognized the effectiveness of the CFGB by increasing its support to $18M for each of the next three years, provided Foodgrains can raise the initial donations. Anyone who would like further details on the Ca- nadian Food Grains Bank or would like to start a "growing project", contact Jim Papple at 522-0699. Weather. cancels church service.
