FOOD BANKS NEED OUR HELP TO KEEP UP
Food bank use is at the highest level in Canadian history.
More working individuals and families are now relying on Canada’s food banks every month.
On top of rising demand, food banks are facing rising costs and decreasing donations.
This Thanksgiving season, help Canada’s food banks be there for every child, every senior, and everyone who needs them.
