To host a food drive.

Organizing a food drive at your school, workplace, or community group is a great way to rally support, and stock our pantry. We’re happy to provide promotional materials, and advice to help you get started.

Food rescue Partnerships

Local businesses, grocers, and restaurants play a huge role in our food rescue efforts by donating perfectly good food that might otherwise go to waste. This includes items that are:

  • Close to expiry
  • Overstocked
  • Mislabeled or discontinued
  • In damaged packaging (but safe and sealed)

If you’re a business interested in becoming a food rescue partner, get in touch with us to learn how to participate.
