After Joe Cardillo, National Sales Manager with Vector Marketing Canada, returned from a Tony Robbins Power Within conference in 2009, he was inspired to start a Basket Brigade chapter here in London, ON
What began more than 30 years ago as Tony Robbins’ individual effort to feed families in need, has now grown into the Anthony Robbins Foundation’s International Basket Brigade, providing baskets of food and household items for an estimated 2 million people annually in countries all over the world.
This is the 3rd year for London’s Basket Brigade and we are once again going to be delivering bountiful baskets all across the city, to families who are struggling. The baskets are complete with a turkey or ham, and all the fixings for a fantastic Christmas dinner and plenty of other groceries to help out during the holiday season. The baskets will be delivered between Dec. 17th and Dec. 21st to 50 deserving families, and the hope is that one day, they can return the favour in some small way for someone else. In just a couple of years we’ve grown from 25 to now 50 families, and we look to continue to grow our reach in the coming years. Continue Reading
