Local Food Bank gets surprise donation from Wolf Midstream
Tofield/Ryley and Area Food Bank (TRAF) was delighted, according to TRAF President Dawn Arnold, to receive a donation of close to $1,000 from Wolf Midstream – a company that maintains linear assets such as pipelines in the community.
“This is the first time we are receiving a donation from them,” Arnold said. “They gave us a generous amount of $983, which will be used to purchase some of the main items for the Christmas hampers, such as peanut butter, bread, canned fruit and vegetables, and fruit juice.
“We gave a tour of our facility here in town to Dan Irwin, and he seemed to enjoy the personal and family approach we have with our clients.”
For Irwin, supporting communities where they have assets is important.
“We believe we have a duty to the people and communities near our operations to ensure they thrive,” Irwin explained. “Wolf works with charitable and non-profit organizations to find ways to create community programs, provide in-kind and financial support, offer volunteer time, and host and sponsor events that are meaningful to our communities.” . . . contd.
