Supporting: Golden Food Bank
Hi everyone,Thank you for visiting our fundraising page!
Some of the Health and Wellness members of Golden have teamed up to host a Virtual Food Drive in support of Food Banks BC.
The Golden Food Bank supports an average of 177 households with emergency food assistance each month, and 215 households at our peak. 634 residents have accessed our Food Bank program at least once this year - thats a number equivalent to 17.4% of the towns population. Despite these high numbers, food insecurity and affordability issues are impacting many more people who do not go to food banks for help.
Together we are making a difference. Over 2,700 hampers filled with fresh produce, meat, dairy, dry goods, toiletries, diapers, and formula have been distributed so far in 2024; food that wouldn't have been on the table otherwise.
Please make a donation today by clicking on the 'Donate' button at the top right.
Your generosity and kindness will help us reach my goal to support those most in need across the province. Together, we can do this!
Online donations are also tax-deductible. Please check your email inbox or spam folder for an automated tax receipt once your donation is successfully processed.
Thank you in advance for supporting our Virtual Food Drive and for ensuring that our communities have access to fresh and healthy food.
