The Inn of the Good Shepherd helped provide food to over 200 local families this holiday season. Executive Director at the Inn of the Good Shepherd Myles Vanni says they also hosted 250 children at their Christmas party, and fed 350 at a recent family dinner. He says community support goes a long way. "All of those kids are going to have a really bright smiling Christmas now because of the support of the community to help those families that are struggling." Vanni says donations slowly picked up after a slow start, something he believes has to do with lack of snow in Lambton County.
