I am writing this letter to share my experience with Sensational Elora. It has been my privilege to bring students to compete in the Sensational Elora Soup Off Competition over the past 12 years. In that time, this organization has allowed my students the opportunity to demonstrate their culinary abilities, perform valuable volunteer service within their community, and to build lasting connections with industry professionals. Most importantly, Sensational Elora has impacted our school community by generously donating thousands of dollars over the years to our CW Eats breakfast program. These funds have greatly enhanced my ability to ensure that no student goes hungry during the school day at CWDHS and can instead focus their attention on student learning. I am entirely grateful for the support we have received and cannot speak highly enough of the Sensational Elora Team. (Feb 10, 2024)

Over the years, the support from Sensational Elora for the Centre Wellington Food Bank has been amazing. The thousands of dollars raised allows us to continue our essential grocery program which provides meat, dairy and other products to families. It also helps support our kitchen which provides many ready to go food options. We received this year's donation when we were amidst plans for our Angel program and holiday grocery gift card program and when client numbers were at an all time high. Thank you! What is truly great about Sensational Elora is that their vents are fun, inclusive, and community-based. Bringing people together, having fun with pumpkins, sharing great food at the Soup-off....and raising funds for the Food Bank! We are so grateful for Sensational Elora! (Feb 8, 2024)
