Food Security
Nutritious food is a fundamental human right. Many individuals and families in our community face food insecurity due to financial hardship, unexpected life events, or systemic barriers. Our food security program provides fresh, healthy food in a welcoming and dignified environment, working together to ensure everyone in our community has access to nourishing food.

Our food bank is open to individuals and families living in the Dufferin-Davenport area who are experiencing food insecurity. Whether you’re facing temporary hardship or ongoing challenges, we are here to help. No referral is needed, and everyone is welcome.
