Advancing Our Communities in 2021
“Copperfin’s donation helped us get food packages to over 200 seniors in Thunder Bay this January, ensuring they had access to nutritious meals while reducing the need to leave their homes for emergency food support.”
Erin Beagle, Executive Director Roots to Harvest
"Copperfin's donation helped fund our project team during January 2021, bringing together over 50 organizations to build an emergency food response plan for the City of Thunder Bay."
Karen Kerk & Courtney Strutt, Community Emergency Food Response Plan Project Team
"With Copperfin's donation I was able to purchase a second fridge, specifically for meal prep and take-out. As I am unable to offer catering right now, these were two areas that I was able to grow to offset revenue lost during Covid."
Jennifer Labine, Jennifer’s Gluten Free Kitchen – PARO Circle
"Copperfin's donation allowed me to purchase the equipment needed to launch my new virtual cooking class platform!"
Rhonda Bill, A Fine Fit Catering – PARO Circle
"This donation allowed me to get the equipment needed to professionally record my courses that include yoga, fitness, health, and overall mental wellbeing!"
Paula Jensen, Peace of Mind – PARO Circle
"The funds for the grant will help me to upgrade my equipment (to be much more efficient) and also introduce a new technique to my signs!"
Charmaine Langlais, It Must Be A Sign – PARO Circle
