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.
We are most grateful to receive donations from different companies through Second Harvest. This definitely increases our food distribution to the community.
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.
Rescued food, particularly from Second Harvest, is essential to our efforts throughout the year and becomes especially valuable during the holidays. Second Harvest provides us with non-perishable items, which helps stretch our resources further. With these donations covering basic staples, we’re able to allocate more of our budget toward fresh produce and proteins, allowing us to offer families a wider range of nutritious options.
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).
