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.
No waste, no hunger means continuing to grow our business sustainably while ensuring that our finished goods and the raw products that we use always sustain our communities and never become waste. Second Harvest supports our objective to continue to bring people together and unite them towards planet-friendly food.
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.
The Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Society of Yukon supports people who are living with or suspected of having fetal alcohol spectrum disorder in housing, justice, employment and food security. Having food and other items on hand to give to our service users is a great way to encourage them to come into the office regularly. With regular communication, we can build the relationships necessary to encourage change among our service users. With the donations from Second Harvest, we always have something to give our folks even when funding is tight.
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).
