Why we have decided to do a food drive: According to foodbankscanada.ca many food banks in Canada are experiencing challenges right now, including:

  • Drastic reductions in volunteers and staff – either because they are at higher risk, must take care of children or are adhering or modifying operations to social distance, isolate or quarantine requirements.
  • Having to cancel food drives and fundraising events due to front line demands – some markets are seeing a 50% drop in food donations
  • Many are reporting having just 10-14 days of food in stock, and that’s based on current usage rates.

According to foodbankscanada.ca, they are seeing a consolidation of distribution centres, meaning that some food banks are serving larger areas because other food banks have had to close – either due to a lack of volunteers or because they were in a physical location or program that had to shutter (like community centres). The food bank network continues to operate (with adjustments) as they are deeply resilient and used to refining their work based upon community need.

If you would like to make a donation please fill out the form below and we will reach out to arrange a date and time to pick up your food donation at your place of residence. FREE OF CHARGE
