Our Local Food Banks Need You

About the Program

Neighbourhood Network’s annual Community Food Drive happens each fall — but the need doesn’t end there. Local food banks are facing record-high demand, and support is needed year-round. Together, we can help ensure everyone in our community has access to the food they need.
