Of all food in Canada is wasted
Of this food could be redirected to support Canadians
Pounds of greenhouse gases created annually from wasted food — the same as 17.3 million cars
With your support, we can connect even more food to people in need across Canada.
Are you a food business with surplus food? Second Harvest rescues food from over 7,500 food donors
across Canada.
Second Harvest has been essential in connecting us to local grocery stores. These grocery stores have allowed us to include bread and baked goods as well as some non-perishable items consistently to the people and families in need that we serve. We are very grateful for this program.
Your gift nourishes more than just our bodies — it strengthens the spirit of sharing and kinship that lies at the heart of who we are as Dakota people. In times of challenge and growth, gestures like yours remind us that we are not alone, and that good-hearted partnerships can help us walk forward in a good way. Pidámiyedo – thank you for standing with us. Your kindness and generosity are deeply appreciated by our Nation.
Many, if not most of, our members do experience food insecurity, so they look forward to ‘Grocery Thursdays.’ The healthy food items provided by Second Harvest are very much appreciated, as generally these are the most expensive and unaffordable, but to most of us are basic staples.
