The Sharing Place

 Hey everyone, I hope you are enjoying our blog so far! We have been able to make something amazing happen! We were just able to talk to The Sharing Place In Orilla about a hopeful collaboration for a food drive at our school! Now with that information, I’m sure you are wondering a few questions, which I will explain below with a quick summary of the question and our response. Now what is the sharing place? The sharing place is a food bank in Oreilla that uses the community to help people with food insecurity. They help out those in the community by providing food security. This is great since that is what a food bank is meant to do, help those in a community struggling with food insecurity by offering a way for them to access healthy food. Why do we want to help out?

Our First Entry

 Hello everyone! Welcome to our blog! Here we will be sharing more about how we are doing toward our goal of aiding indigenous communities and peoples. As this is our introduction to our blogs and might be the first time that you have heard from us I feel we should be able to share a bit about ourselves or more importantly, who we are and why we would like to help out the communities around us. First things first, who are we? Well, we are a small group of students, meaning there are three of us, all of whom want to make a difference in the world around us. But I mean you can get that answer by looking at our social media, but those aren’t just words. We are a small group that wants to make the world a better place, and we believe that the only way to be able to do that is to be able to help the people, more specifically communities of people. Second things second, why do we want to help indigenous communities? Well, we have been learning about what different communities have had to...
