MacCormack Family Fund

Alice's Table

An inspirational matriarch of a large and successful family, Alice MacCormack raised her many caring and accomplished children (and grandchildren) by example – she taught them to be compassionate, generous to others in the community, to strive for great things, and to never forget the importance of family or from where you come.

Alice was one of the first inductees into the Cape Breton Women’s Story Gallery on the first floor of New Dawn Centre in Sydney.

In 2015, members of her family established the MacCormack Family Fund to support Alice’s Table, a program that, through a series of workshops and cooking classes, aims to reintroduce the knowledge and culinary skills required to plan, purchase, and prepare nutritious family meals on a modesty budget. Past workshops have included: How to Prepare Christmas Dinner, Making Tomato Sauce from Scratch, and a Valentine’s Day Cookie Workshop.
