For 20 years now, The Gift of Giving Back has been inspiring youth to step up, give back, and make a difference. What started with a little red wagon and a dream has grown into one of Canada’s largest community food drives. Together with schools, sports teams, community groups, and generous donors, we’ve collected millions of pounds of food for local agencies, helping families right here at home.
The 2025 Campaign was recently featured in a segment on CHCH News. Click the play button to watch the broadcast.
Did you know summer is often one of the most challenging times for food banks?
As donations slow down during the warmer months, many local families continue to rely on food support services. The need doesn`t disappear when school ends or vacation season begins.
Last month, Acton Foodshare, Burlington Food Bank, FeedHalton, Georgetown Bread Basket, Kerr Street Mission, and The Salvation Army Khi Community Milton came together for Hunger Doesn`t Take A Break. This initiative is raising awareness for the need in our community this season.
We are calling on our community to find your nearest food bank and donate today. Every contribution helps!

There’s nothing sweeter than showing up for your community 💗🍪
Our Managing Director, Deb, had a great time supporting our friends at @burlfoodbank by volunteering during Tim Hortons Smile Cookie week. We’re so grateful to see our community come together to support Burlington Food Bank as they continue their hard work serving local families facing food insecurity.
Every smile makes a difference! 🤝
