We’re Building Something Bigger Than a Food Bank and Need Your Help!

Food insecurity in Toronto has reached emergency levels. Each month, more than 30,000 people rely on North York Harvest Food Bank and our network of community partners. Our warehouse is at full capacity and can no longer keep up with the growing demand.

Join our campaign to build a new Community Food Hub — a space that will triple our storage, rescue more fresh food, train people for good jobs, and power a more just and sustainable food system for all.

This isn’t just a bigger warehouse — it’s a reimagining of what a food bank can be.
