For many, the holiday season is truly the most wonderful time of the year! Although it may be tempting to let loose and lean towards comfort foods during the holidays, why not aim to have as healthy of a holiday season as possible this year.
On behalf of the Eden Food for Change Board of Directors I would like to wish Happy New Year to our supporters, volunteers and staff!
SPECIAL THANK YOU TO HARRY PEDWELL As many of you are aware, Harry Pedwell has been a board member at Eden since 2016 and served as President of the Board since 2019. On short notice, Harry resigned from the board this fall to fulfill an obligation in his role as a Lieutenant Colonel in the Canadian Armed Forces. He is currently deployed as part of a non-combat mission with NATO in Iraq. Harry provided steady leadership at the board level during evolving and often challenging times over the last couple of years. We want to thank Harry not only for his greater service to Canadians but his dedication and commitment to Eden. We look forward to welcoming Harry back into the Eden community upon his safe return.
