Our Work
Relieving hunger today. Preventing hunger tomorrow.
Food Banks Canada is a national charitable organization dedicated to helping Canadians living with food insecurity. We support a network of Provincial Associations, affiliate food banks, and food agencies that work at the community level to relieve hunger. Our work is focused on maximizing collective impact, strengthening local capacity, and reducing the need for food banks.
We offer several programs that help food banks enhance their ability to acquire a safe and steady supply of nutritious food and distribute it to people in their communities.
The Community Gardens Program gives food bank recipients greater access to fresh foods and food-growing skills by funding community garden and greenhouse programs within the food bank network.
Explore the key issues that we’re currently working on to help improve the situation of low income Canadians.
Every day, the 10 Provincial Associations and more than 500 Affiliate food banks help struggling Canadians put food on the table.
