FOOD SECURITY PROGRAM
Supporting Families, Strengthening Community
Every month end, hundreds of families receive well balanced culturally appropriate nutritious grocery hampers containing fresh produce, dairy, protein, and grains—shared with kindness, respect, and a sense of community.
Through the Employment & Social Development Canada (ESDC) grant, our community has benefited from funds administered by United Way of the Lower Mainland, BC Government and support from ERA. The grant increased the capacity of our organization to support community members with cultural food items when both availability and prices have been negatively affected by inflation. Grocery is distributed once a month and the distribution date is set month-to-month. Distribution location and time details will be provided. Find opportunities to volunteer, Make a difference and pay it forward.
