Rescuing Food. Impacting Lives.
About us
Food for Life sources fresh, nutritious food and shares it to with our neighbours in need through community partnerships. Food for Life holds a unique niche among Canadian food relief charities in that we focus on redistributing fresh, nutritious food. The neighbours we serve tell us that they are often not able to afford fresh food and that having access to this healthy food allows them to focus on obtaining other life essentials as they work towards no longer relying on our services.

Today on the International Day of Charity, we thank Cavendish Farms for sorting and packing over 2553 lbs. of GOOD surplus food that is now ready to be shared out to 350 households. They also helped ensure inedible food will be composted rather than sent to landfill. There are many ways to help Food for Life power our mission. Visit FoodForLife.ca for details! 💚
