From coast to coast to coast, Second Harvest and our network of donors, non-profits and volunteers are making a difference in the lives of people facing food insecurity and protecting the planet we call home.

Our partnership with Second Harvest has helped deliver hope, joy and nutrition to dozens of agencies and thousands of people. Second Harvest has provided valuable connections which enabled us to rescue and redistribute everything from 36,000 lbs of oranges to over one million pieces of chocolate! On behalf of the agencies we serve, we’re grateful to Second Harvest and their donors for bringing us opportunities to help feed our communities.
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.
[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.
We’re proud to support food rescue across Canada, rescuing food from coast to coast to coast, as we work towards the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
