From coast to coast to coast, Second Harvest and our network of donors, non-profits and volunteers are making a difference in the lives of people facing food insecurity and protecting the planet we call home.
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.
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.
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.
We’re proud to support food rescue across Canada, rescuing food from coast to coast to coast, as we work towards the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
