across Canada.
Second Harvest is an important partner that helps support our organization and all our members in their respective regions. The bulk of the food we distribute to our members comes from donations and food recovery. This is also true when it comes to food banks and community kitchens.

We love Second Harvest and the food rescue program. With the donations we receive, we are able to stretch our food budget as well as help out our children, youth and families who are struggling with food insecurity. It is amazing to be able to give them a little hand up throughout the month.
The Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Society of Yukon supports people who are living with or suspected of having fetal alcohol spectrum disorder in housing, justice, employment and food security. Having food and other items on hand to give to our service users is a great way to encourage them to come into the office regularly. With regular communication, we can build the relationships necessary to encourage change among our service users. With the donations from Second Harvest, we always have something to give our folks even when funding is tight.
