Of this food could be redirected to support Canadians

Seeing the relief and gratitude on people's faces as they receive fresh produce and prepared meals reminds us why partnerships like ours are so vital. Your commitment to fighting food insecurity in our community does not go unnoticed. Thank you for standing with us and for making such a significant difference in the lives of our neighbours.
Food that we receive through Second Harvest has a really significant impact on the community. Without it, we wouldn't be able to do what we do. It really is the backbone of our programs.
Every week a team of staff, students and family members work together to sort, package and distribute 5,000 to 6,000 lbs. of produce and up to 2,000 lbs. of bakery products. We regularly hear how meaningful this support is at a time when food prices are putting an incredible strain on families. It is because of Second Harvest that we are able to make this difference for families in the Winnipeg School Division.
