Action Margeurite St. Vital
Agape Table
Behavioral Health Foundation
Ecole Henri Bergeron

The above are a list of the official organizations we donated to – but we also shared the fruit among friends, family and neighbours who would not otherwise have had access to fresh, local and (mostly) organic produce. It was a pleasure to share fruit with everyone!
