“Our school lunch program was new this year, and also was beneficial to many in the community. During April, May and June, we gave out about 100 lunches per day. We helped many in need and had great support from the community for this outreach.” The Thrift Store part of the Weyburn Salvation Army had to close from the middle of March until June. Fortunately, the Salvation Army still received a lot of overwhelming support from the community during this time. “Another challenge we have seen is that many who would not normally need help have reached out for support due to COVID,” said Fanning. “Our numbers have increased and with the help of the community, we have been able to meet the needs of the rising numbers. The Food Bank has seen an increase each month with new families coming in.”
