Volunteers make food banks hum – a round of applause for our stand-up community friends.
Announcement: Expanded partnership with Food Banks Canada
It’s been nearly 45 years since the first food bank opened in Canada – the mission was simple, and the timeline was short: eliminate short-term food insecurity and help people get over the difficult economic hump at the time. Fast forward to now, the country remains in a food security crisis.
...and here we are. One year later.
What comes next? We keep going.
