Drop off non-perishable donations at the Downtown Community Center and help stock the local food pantry through winter — the months when demand climbs and donations traditionally fall away.
Everything collected is sorted, date-checked and packed the same day, then distributed across the neighbourhood pantries during the following week. You can drop and go in under a minute, or stay and work the sorting line.
Sign in at the hall entrance and pick a sorting station.
Donations checked for dates and separated by category.
Provided — stay as long or as little as suits you.
Boxes made up for each of the six pantries.
Last donations accepted at the loading bay on the north side.
Yes, and it goes further — the pantries buy at wholesale, so a cash gift typically buys around twice what the same amount would at the supermarket.
Not at the drive. We have no cold storage on site. The pantries take fresh donations directly on weekday mornings.
Pull into the loading bay on the north side and a greeter will unload for you. For anything over about ten boxes, let us know in advance and we will keep the bay clear.
Six neighbourhood pantries, weighted toward whichever are running lowest that week. We publish the totals here within a few days.
Creating opportunities, strengthening communities and helping meaningful change reach the people who need it most.
