Our family meal program provides meal packages to community agencies for weekly distribution to families experiencing food insecurity. This food support along with agency services helps these families achieve positive change.
Each weekly meal package includes two balanced family meals consisting of:
- frozen main dishes and our ‘famous’ fruit delight, both prepared using food rescue, donated, and purchased ingredients.
- food rescue produce and baked goods.
In 2023 our volunteers prepared 2442 meals and rescued 12,600 lbs (5712.25 kgs) of food. This dedicated group runs the entire family meal program and all have obtained the Alberta Health Food Safe, Food Safe Certificate, with five of the volunteers having broader food handling education and supervisory certificates.
Can we count on your support?
Together we can help children reach their full potential!
With your donation, our school lunch and family meal programs can continue to provide healthy meals and hope to children and their families.
