Community Street Outreach Event
Kamloops, BC – Thursday, February 20, Lighthouse Projects, in partnership with Fryer’s Express Gourmet Grilled Sandwiches & More, is hosting a special Street Outreach Event called “BACK ALLEY BITES” to support Kamloops’ vulnerable population. The event will take place from 6 - 7 PM at OUT OF THE COLD - at Stuart Wood School Downtown Kamloops.
This heartwarming initiative aims to bring comfort, kindness, and essential items to those in need. Fryer’s Express will be generously donating food and drinks to ensure our street friends have a meal.
