5.6 Million Canadians struggling to put food on the table.
Second Harvest rescues quality surplus food from a variety of donors and delivers it, direct and free of charge, to incredible charities that can make use of it to support those in need.
Every dollar donated helps us provide two nutritious meals to vulnerable Canadians.
Food waste is a real issue in our country. Thanks to innovative program like yours, small organisations like ours have the chance to give a second life to food that would have been otherwise going to the landfill.

I have to say that since participating in this program, the quality and variety of food we are able to provide our clients is simply amazing.
All food banks and local grocery stores should be involved!

Lotus Light is currently setting up a drive thru food bank in a parking lot in the downtown east side of Vancouver. Thank you so much for your kindness and assistance, your help is vital to so many.

With the COVID-19 pandemic, we would have more food waste, especially bread products. We feel better seeing the excess product going to people who need it.
Sue, Food Donor
What an innovative and brilliant idea to cut food waste while supporting community organizations fighting food hunger who are in need. Our community members directly benefit from this program as food goes immediately from donor to family!
Jim, Food Recipient
We’re always looking for ways to participate in different community events and fundraisers – this was just kind of an add-on to that. We get to reduce our carbon footprint and support local agencies in such an easy way!
Jessica, Food Donor
Until we joined, our evening drop-in served only coffee and snacks (sometimes just crackers). Thanks to Second Harvest we are now able to serve all our drop-in guests a full hot meal. For many of them, it may be their only meal of the day.
