#ThriveThursday – An incredible gift of $US 100,000 from Lions Clubs International Foundation (LCIF) and local clubs was given to the THRIVE campaign at Greener Village.
The Perishable Food Rescue Centre will be a first of its kind in Canada, and we are sincerely grateful to LCIF, LCI District N1, and to the New Maryland Lions Club and Fredericton Lions Club who were the lead applicants on securing this funding.
Lions Clubs International Foundation is supported by the over 10,000 Lions Clubs and 1.4 million Lions around the world. LCIF supports important projects around the globe including disaster relief, healthcare projects, and major projects to benefit community well-being.

A sincere thank you to the Lions for their generous donation, and for their recognition of the THRIVE PFRC for such a significant investment. The PFRC will rescue produce destined for waste, process, freeze and ship it to food banks all across New Brunswick, increasing access to healthy, locally grown food for the 25% of New Brunswickers who currently live with food insecurity.
