The Depot Community Food Centre

Our Mission

We provide Emergency Food Baskets twice a month to people who have less than an adequate amount of income. We have come to see our mission of providing food as a unique opportunity to connect people to a variety of resources and information that they are often not aware of. The Good Food Box has made it easier for people with low incomes to access fresh produce at lower prices and our Cooking Programs bring people together to learn how to prepare healthy inexpensive meals and create supportive social networks. Many people who walk through our doors, despite their challenges, have a variety of talents to share. Our skill sharing and pre-employability projects help prepare people for their next steps in life. The NDG Food Depot is a Community Hub where people can find meaningful ways to engage and forge new solutions to hunger, poverty and social isolation.
