Food banks are concerned over a lack of volunteers and donations amid the increased demand during the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, Stronger Together, Tous Ensemble is intended to help raise funds for essential food and support items for Canada’s food bank network.
You can donate to Food Banks Canada online at FoodBanksCanada.ca/StrongerTogether or by texting COVID to 30333 to donate $5, $10, or $20.
