By partnering with volunteers and local businesses like Sobeys, Foodland Alcona, and Davidson Country Dining, Innisfil Pride has held many successful events at the Lefroy United Church-Grange Hall over the past three years, including providing free Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners to those in need over the holiday season. As such, Innisfil Pride is proud to donate proceeds of this Saturday’s Chili at the Grange fundraising event to Lefroy United Church.
Carol Griffith, Treasurer & Events Coordinator of Innisfil Pride, told InnisfilToday that the United Church is part of Innisfil's heritage and needs to be preserved. Innisfil Pride looks forward to supporting other local organizations this year too, including the Innisfil Food Bank, the Senior Wish Association, and the L&F TNR Feral Cat Rescue of Innisfil.
