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.
[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.

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.
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.
