As millions of households struggle to put food on the table, we cannot afford to keep throwing good food away. Make food waste reduction a core part of Canada’s National Food Security Strategy.
Of all food in Canada is wasted
Of this food could be redirected to support Canadians
Pounds of greenhouse gases created annually from wasted food — the same as 17.3 million cars
With your support, we can connect even more food to people in need across Canada.
Are you a food business with surplus food? Second Harvest rescues food from over 7,500 food donors

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.
We at The Mustard Seed accommodate anywhere from 50-150 guests, 3 meals a day using these products. All of the food donations that we receive [from Second Harvest] are put directly into meals and sometimes used to bake treats for the guests. The Mustard Seed feeds and provides for community members facing homelessness and poverty. One guest in particular is always complimenting the variety and taste of our food
Rhema Christian Ministries has benefited significantly with the food received from Second Harvest, especially during this pandemic time. Our clients are appreciative of the variety of food. Thank you, Second Harvest! Rhema Food Bank could not feed the communities without your support.
