“I am in talks with other meat suppliers to see if they will also help, and if you know any produce / dairy farmers in Chilliwack that would like to help, please pass along my phone number: 604-316-6015,” Crosbie wrote. “Together, we pray for peace and freedom and we must realize there is no distance between our countries in values.”

Back in December 2022, Crosbie originally thought she’d be handing out somewhere in the neighbourhood of 500 Christmas meals or so, possibly more.

Thanks to the generous hearts of a Chilliwack community that stepped up to assist Crosbie and help make Christmas brighter, that original goal was obliterated.

Crosbie wrote on Facebook on December 17 that over 400 meals were distributed in the Chilliwack community, and another 200 are slated to go out before Thursday, December 22 to people behind closed doors. An estimated 300 Christmas meals were distributed among the streets of Chilliwack by December 22.

“Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all the Volunteers that have come in to help with meal prep, putting meals together, delivering meals, and all those that have graciously, during the holiday season…made potatoes, stuffing, gravy, veggies, pies, treats, and cookies, and to those that bought food and brought it into our shop,” Crosbie wrote on Facebook back in December.

She also expressed thanks to the countless community angels that donated warm clothing and blankets for those suffering from homelessness.

Crosbie specifically thanked Andreas Sartori, who bought 100 pies to help with the Christmas meal. Those pies covered 400 of the Christmas meals going out, Crosbie said.

“Something like this is not the work of just one person,” Crosbie concluded. “This is definitely because our community comes forward to help each other in times of need. God bless each of you!”
