Information

Food Assistance is an ESSENTIAL SERVICE. The spread of coronavirus disease has created significant challenges for people around the world. We are heartened to see how communities across Canada have come together to support one another during these difficult times. For the 821 million people facing hunger, the disruptions to food systems and economic slowdown will create new challenges, and add to their numbers. Now, more than ever, food assistance and protecting people’s livelihoods are essential.

Canadian Foodgrains BankCanadian Foodgrains Bank - Virtual BoothOur goal is a world without hunger. We work toward this goal by: providing food in times of crisis for hungry people in the developing world; helping people grow more food to better feed themselves and their families; and providing nutritional support to malnourished people with a focus on pregnant and breastfeeding mothers and young children. We also advocate for public policies that enable families and communities to better feed themselves, and look for ways to engage and educate Canadians about global hunger.
