Food that we receive through Second Harvest has a really significant impact on the community. Without it, we wouldn't be able to do what we do. It really is the backbone of our programs.
The collaborative efforts with the Tłı̨chǫ Government and Second Harvest helped us fulfill our goal of serving residents in the Behchoko community and address the urgent needs of our food security program. Over two days, we distributed about 90 hampers of essential goods and food items such as milk, bread, eggs and meat to the most vulnerable members of our community. Individuals and families came to receive the donated food and expressed their thanks to Second Harvest and the organization involved.
[Our partnership with Second Harvest is] life-saving in many ways. You can’t put a value on a partnership like this. When it keeps coming and coming, and giving and giving and giving, and we can pass on that to anybody and everybody, that’s the value of it. A partnership is something you work together on for a common goal.
