Food Banks

Hunger is a very real and widespread problem in many parts of the world. Even in our comparatively affluent Canadian society, many struggle daily to put food on the table for their children and others in their care, such as dependent elderly relatives, single-parent households, refugees, etc. Those of us who are blessed with the means to meet our families’ needs can make a great difference in the lives of the less- fortunate in our communities by helping provide them with adequate and healthy food. ICNA Relief Canada’s Food Banks are a community-run project that has been running for the last 20 years. Thanks to generous donations, which are always welcome, it continues to serve the deserving and needy today.

Service Outreach Area

Our Food Banks target needy people within their specific regions. Due to unemployment or the inability to find jobs after immigrating to Canada, many people representing diverse ethnic, linguistic, and cultural backgrounds turn to this service.

Who Uses The Food Bank

Food banks are places of last resort for poverty-stricken people who cannot afford to feed themselves or their families. Anyone can find him or herself among the needy; hunger knows no boundaries.

How Does Family Register?

Applicants must register online below or in person at one of our Food Banks. Furthermore, applicants must meet our financial-need criteria. Due to limited resources, members may use the Food Bank only once per month. This allows us to give help to all impoverished families who are registered with this service.

Where Does The Food Come From?

The ICNA Relief Food Banks are a community-supported project, completely dependent on donations of cash and non-perishable foods. With the support of local community groups, grocery stores, and caring individuals like you, we can organize food collection drives throughout the year to keep our Food Bank well-stocked and open to those in need.
