Latter-day Saints in Edmonton, Alberta conducted a major food drive collecting thousands of pounds of donated food for families in need, according to Deseret News reporting on the Church newsroom announcement. Multiple congregations participated in gathering non-perishable items for distribution to local food banks.

The Canadian humanitarian project is part of the Church's broader service initiatives during fall months. The Deseret News account provides the same basic details as the Church's own announcement about the Edmonton-area effort.
