The Purple Ribbon Campaign<\/a> aims to raise money for local food banks while showing gratitude to Essential Workers. The campaign started with Lodge 146 in Alberta and is growing across the country.<\/p>\n

Recently, Lodge 128 in Sudbury, Ontario, was featured on the local television news<\/a> regarding donations they made in support of Essential Workers to a local food bank.<\/p>\n

In addition, the executive board of District 10 agreed to donate a total of $1,000 to split between the three provinces where their members work and live. This consisted of donations to the Hamilton Food Bank in Hamilton, Ontario, the Romero House in Saint John, New Brunswick, and the Colchester Food Bank in Truro, Nova Scotia.<\/p>\n
