The Canadian Progress Club Durham Region Women and Durham South are pleased to be part of the Delta Bingo Hall in Pickering. Since moving to Stage 3 in the Durham Region the Hall has now reopened, and is following all safety guidelines, cleaning and disinfecting all spaces to ensure your safety. The Canadian Progress Club Durham Region Women and Durham South, are proud to be partners with the Delta Bingo Hall in Pickering, and as a result, have been able to support the community for many years. On October 21, 2020, both Progress Clubs were fortunate to visit the St. Paul’s on the Hill Community Food Bank. This program is operated entirely by volunteers, and provides incredible service to the Pickering and Ajax communities.

As we move into the holiday season, it is important to be aware of the need within your community. The Canadian Progress Club, Durham Region Women and Durham South, contributed $6000 towards the Christmas Hamper Program, which will take registrations in November. This program will ensure families in need will receive a gift bag and gift certificate to help with holiday shopping. Past seasons, families have received turkeys and food, however, due to changing circumstances, the gift hamper program will have a different look, but provide some holiday cheer!

The St Paul’s on the Hill Community Food Bank is a very important part of our city, and we are happy to support the efforts of so many making a difference in our community life. Our partnership with Delta Bingo will ensure we are able to carry on our commitments, and that we are able to continue to be part of this amazing community.
