As COVID continues to be a part of our daily lives, the NLRMTA has been reviewing our annual community activities to determine how we can continue to give back in a meaningful way while respecting the necessary health and safety protocols of the province. One of these initiatives includes our annual holiday Food Bank Recital Series.
This year, the NLRMTA Board is excited to announce our first- ever Food Bank Express, a province -wide virtual food bank drive that will replace our in-person recital series. By moving to a virtual platform, the NLRMTA is excited to invite all music teachers, regardless of membership, to participate in this fun recital series and collect financial donations for community food banks. No additional work is required on your part to participate! All you have to do is register your holiday studio recital with the Food Bank Express and encourage your families to make a financial donation to the Community Food Sharing Association during your holiday recitals. All collected donations will then be distributed to local food banks across Newfoundland and Labrador during the holiday season.
The Food Bank Express gives music teachers far and wide the opportunity to come together to make an impact on our communities. And, to showcase our togetherness, as your studio joins the initiative, you will be profiled on our website and Facebook page, as well as the Community Food Sharing Association website.
A province-wide initiative like this has never been done before and with your participation, our sincere hope is to exceed what we collected in 2019 - more than $10,000 cash value of food items. Come on board and let's make a difference!
Register HERE to be a part of this exciting project! If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Margaret Murray Reed. The ‘Express’ will be on the rails from December 1 to 20, 2020 and the registration deadline is November 16, 2020.
A special thank you to our community partner, the Community Food Sharing Association for supporting us in this exciting endeavour.
