There are about 75 people volunteering here today. Winnipeg Harvest has a wonderful, committed and talented volunteer base.

Did you know that, Winnipeg Harvest volunteers put in over 383,000 hours last year? Factoring in a 40 hour work week, over a period of 52 weeks, that is the equivalent of 192 full-time positions.  

From sorting incoming food to answering 400+ daily phone calls from clients, to delivering snacks to daycares, the people who volunteer are the backbone of Winnipeg Harvest.

Are you looking to add to your art collection with great local talent?  You have your chance this weekend at the Forks Market 10^th Annual Art Festival & Auction.
