M.L. RCMP participating in holiday charity initiatives
Local RCMP officers are making sure everyone on two and four legs are taken care of this holiday season.
Detachment members are simultaneously running a toy drive in conjunction with local food bank and soup kitchen, the Door of Hope, and a canned food and supply drive for the Meadow Lake and District Humane Society.
The toy drive has taken place over the last few years. The Door of Hope is accepting donations of toys for children and teens, and has a list of families, as does the RCMP, and then officers will help wrap, then deliver the gifts a few days before Christmas. Any excess toys are then delivered to the RCMP detachment and the emergency room and ambulance bay at the hospital.
Unita Esau, Executive Director of the Door of Hope, said she’s thankful for the partnership with the local RCMP for this drive.
