As a club, we took the decision to repeat last years “CAN” you do it challenge. In February 21 we donated a massive 350 cans.
This year a provisional target was set of 500. However due to the “promise ” of Ruth in fancy dress we donated a massive 623. This is a phenomenal amount and will make a very real difference to those who currently need the additional support.
Once again, this demonstrates what an incredible group you all are, I must say a special thanks to those who turned up week after week with bags or cans, those who left bags on my doorstep and those who went above and beyond.
During our visit to Medway Food bank, the reality of what we managed to achieve hit home. The Foodbank currently supplies 2 tonnes a week to local families in need. We donated over a tonne, as you would expect I`m already thinking of targets for next year.
As to quote Ruth yesterday ” you can never underestimate what a Plodder CAN achieve”
I for one was very proud to be a PLODDER yesterday.
