How You Can Help

A majority of our essential work happens right in the food bank, and we rely entirely on dedicated volunteers like you! Join us to help sort and inspect incoming food donations, pack boxes and bags for distribution, stock shelves, or assist with client intake, pickup and deliveries, reception, etc. No prior experience is required—just a desire to help! Volunteering at the facility is a wonderful opportunity to meet community members, learn about food distribution logistics, and see the immediate impact of your time. We have flexible shifts available. Be a vital part of the team that gets food from our door to our neighbours' tables.

Running a food drive is one of the most direct and rewarding ways to support our mission, and it's easy to integrate into activities you are already planning! Whether you are hosting a community event, a neighbourhood block party, a school play, or a corporate gathering, simply designating your activity as a collection point can turn your event into a powerful force for good. We can provide guidance and support, including lists of our most-needed items and suggestions for drop-off logistics. Every single can, box, and non-perishable item you collect helps ensure our neighbours have access to the nutritious food they need to thrive.

Fighting hunger requires more than food—it requires systemic change. By becoming an advocate, you use your voice to help secure sustainable solutions. We encourage you to contact your elected officials about policies that fight poverty and protect nutrition assistance programs. Follow us on social media to easily share vital statistics and campaign information, and help us educate your network about the critical issues driving food insecurity right here in our community. Your voice is a powerful tool against hunger.
