Still fighting hunger

Our Mission
:
To
Feed Those In Need and Work To Reduce Hunger
The North York Harvest Food Bank works towards the relief of hunger in communities throughout northern Toronto. The Food Bank supports emergency food programs, partners with perinatal programs, advocates for change on issues affecting food bank use and works with like-minded organizations to develop innovative and respectful ways for our clients to access culturally appropriate and personally acceptable food at no cost. Now in our 20th year of service, the North York Harvest Food Bank collects, sorts and distributes food to a network of more than 60 community programs that provide food to approximately 25,000 people a month. Located throughout northern Toronto, these programs include emergency food programs operating in religious institutions and community health centres; community kitchens; drop-in centres; prenatal and early parenting programs; before- and after-school snack programs; campus food banks; and shelters for youth and women. More than 1,300 volunteers are involved in the implementation of the work of North York Harvest Food Bank.
Established in 1986, the North York Harvest Food Bank is a non-profit, non-denominational registered charitable organization (Charitable No. 11906 2495 RR 0001). The Food Bank is a founding member of both the Canadian Association of Food Banks (CAFB) and the Ontario Association of Food Banks (OAFB) and upholds and adheres to the CAFB's Code of Ethics
