WBNG (the Westcoast Business Networking Group) along with 50 energetic Moms and Dads from OLPH elementary school came together today to make sandwiches for the hungry of the Downtown Eastside.  The hall at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church in Point Grey was buzzing with excitement as everyone took to the bread, ham and cheese to put 1,000 sandwiches together in 45 minutes, believe it or not!  

It is so heartwarming to see how many people want to help and make a difference, even if it is only for one day. If more organizations did the same, we could help eliminate hunger in our city.

This was the first charity event for WBNG and we hope to have many more to come. For more information on WBNG please contact one of our Board of Directors:  Ana Domingos, Reema Alevras, Kelly Arthur or Ellie Beaulieu.

I am the president of a wonderful networking group called the Westcoast Business Networking Group (WBNG).  On Friday, November 25th, 2011 our organization, in conjunction with 40 wonderful mothers from Our Lady of Perpetual Help Elementary School, will endevour to make 1,000+ sandwiches for the Downtown Eastside Charitable organization called: The Door is Open on Cordova Street.

This is WBNG's first charitable event and we are all very thrilled about giving and reaching out to our community and those who endure hunger on a daily basis.

We hope to make a difference for one day....
