Get involved
The need is great.
The ways to help are many.
Our primary way of getting support to food-insecure children and families is through cash donations that we invest in grocery gift cards. But there are other ways to support our work.
Donate
When you help us empower food-insecure families to feed themselves, you are:
- honouring people with dignity and choice
- improving access to fresh and nutritious food
- contributing to the conversation about effective poverty reduction
