Fight Hunger: Winnipeg Harvest and Communications Manager

fight hunger: Give 30 has helped mobilize people of all faiths and backgrounds for a common goal to help fight hunger and feed hope, according to CTV. Initiatives like this help us walk alongside individuals and families helping them step up and out of poverty, said Kylie Exner of Winnipeg Harvest in a release. Chris Albi, the communications manager for Winnipeg Harvest, said they raised about 5,000 more than last year. Somali refugee Yahya Samatar, who swam across the Red River to get to Canada in 2015, said Winnipeggers have been very welcoming. I now have a job, friends, and feel part of something. They guided me and helped me become a part of the community, he said in the release. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
