Mustard Seed shares needs at pancake breakfast
The Red Deer Mustard Seed hosted clients and community members at a pancake breakfast on July 18, where senior director of food services Laura Giesbrecht shared on the current needs of the organization.
Recently, the Mustard Seed faced an emergent water shortage and Red Deerians stepped up to help the situation.
“We are OK for now; we actually received quite a few donations. I was so Impressed with our community, and with these temperatures looking like they’re going to be 35 for the rest of this coming week I know that we’ll likely need more water,” Griesbecht said.
In addition to water, the organization could use hygiene items like toilet paper, toothbrushes, soaps and shampoos, as well as sunscreen, bug spray, and other seasonally appropriate items.
