• THANK YOU for helping me bring 380 food items to the @vanfoodbank this morning!!! We raised $510 of donations 😱, combined with food donations, this turned into an incredible pile of donations that was dropped off just before 8:00am this morning 😁 It is all thanks to a small community coming together, to help others, thank you 🤗🥺 Thanks @michael.cordovani + @akeishadb for helping me shop, carry + transport the food 💪🏻 Because I’m a bit nerdy, + love knowing the facts, here’s how your dollar and donations were stretched: Canned beans and chickpeas 61 Cans of meat/fish 52 Bars of soap 50 Soup 37 Pasta 32 Canned cranberries 24 Toothpaste 18 Canned vegetables 13 Dish soap 10 Cereal 9 Tins of tea (80 tea bags each) 9 Mustard 7 Rice bags 7 Shampoo/Conditioner 6 Instant noodles 6 Ketchup 5 Other 5 Juice 4 Toothbrush 4 Mayonaise 4 Pancake mix 4 Peanut Butter 4 Coffee tins 3 Pasta Sauce 3 Syrup 3 (approx. $1.34/item) I want to keep this momentum going forward! I have the idea, of a group of people, each giving a small amount (or their chosen amount each month), to pay it forward. 🔜 Ideas of surprising a random person on the street with a gift card, tipping a server of skip the dishes driver with $50 vs. just 10%, paying someone’s rent etc. 💰 If you’re interested in this idea, comment below a 🆒 or DM me, and we can make this happen! 💪🏻 #strongertogether #bettertogether #vanfoodbank #vancouverfoodbank #numinmytum #sharingiscaring #foodbank #foodbankscanada #donations #givingback #giving #charity #community #teamworkmakesthedreamwork

  • 🎉 Hi, it’s my birthday. ...it would mean a lot to me if you would give a ‘gift’ of a $5 donation, to help me raise funds to buy food for the @vanfoodbank! E-transfers/PayPal donations to: anna@annadueck.com I’m so proud of our pile, with just under $200 of donations so far. 💥 My goal is to double it by end of the month. I know we can make it happen, but I need your help (donations or items)! 🙏🏻 Food, particularly sweets, have always been at the centre of my birthdays. 🎂 (ps never got around to making my own cake 🍰, ha!) Like last night’s delicious dinner from @baobei1, this morning’s tasty breakfast wrap from @chatandchoux (thanks @michael.cordovani 😘) + a stop at my fav 🍦 spot, @earnesticecream (thanks @akeishadb). I know we can share the love of food with others for this upcoming holiday season by growing this pile! 🥰 Have a great week ahead everyone, stay safe + healthy ♥️😷 #sharingiscaring #allinthistogether #numinmytum #itsmybirthday #birthdayfundraiser

  • Hey friends, I’m trying to fill this box with food + basic items for the @vanfoodbank. I’m pretty sure you know how much I love food 🍌 🍫 🍪 + dislike being hangry by now, which I cannot imagine feeling during the holiday season. I’m collecting items + donations in November, so by December the food bank has a better supply to give away 👐🏻 I understand the ever changing time we all are in right now, but if you have $5, or a food item to spare to help overflow this box that would mean a lot 🤗 (considering my birthday IS less than a week away 🎂🎉💥) *For e-transfer / PayPal donations please send them to: anna@annadueck.com* Inspired by my Mama @quiltingbylee, + the Reverse Advent Calendar. I personally am trying to buy one item a day to donate (usually this means buying seven during my weekly grocery shop). I inspire you to take this on, or send your good energy my way + I can help build the box of goodies from us! I think we can easily get to $600. 💪🏻 If everyone donates $5, that’s only 120 people! We’re already at $150, meaning only 90 more people need step it up with $5! (Remember I raised over $6K before with your help for the @cancersociety last August...I know we can do this ♥️) #sharingiscaring #numinmytum #hangry #nooneshouldbehungry #holidayseason #itsmybirthday

  • NOVEMBER, the best month of the year, if you ask me. Particularly around the 15th 🎂 😉 As we continue to move through the month, I keep looking at my written + posted next to my desk, November goals, to continue making changes to achieve new successes 💫 I’m proud how committed I remained in October. It wasn’t about being perfect, as this adds too much pressure on ourselves, but by making the small adjustments + breaking old habits to see how far we can go 💥 —>swipe left for November’s goals #newmonth #newhabits #numinmytum #listqueen #geterdone
