At this year’s 8th annual Diversity Dinner, hosted by the Canadian Colours Kingston Foundation, the Community Foundation for Kingston & Area proudly joined as co-organizer to celebrate “Resilience through Diversity.” This free event encouraged donations in support of Martha's Table to help address food insecurity in the Kingston region. We're pleased to share a photo from the recent cheque presentation to Ronda Candy (Executive Director, Martha’s Table), with Stacy Kelly (Executive Director, Community Foundation for Kingston & Area) and Jimmy Hassan (Founder, Canadian Colours Kingston Foundation).
