SATELLITE PROGRAM
A robust process for assessing, onboarding, and managing potential Satellite Locations has been developed to ensure the network of locations meet the needs of as many clients in need as possible and in the most sustainable way.
FRESH FOOD RESCUE PROGRAM
The Calgary Food Bank in collaboration with the Calgary Co-op launched a food rescue program and it is wildly successful.
OFFERING SUPPORT BEYOND FOOD
We revamped the process and have now initiated a more client centric, trauma-informed way to guide clients to supports beyond food. Today we have trained Referral & Resource volunteers who call clients that opt for follow-up.
Board of Directors
We are governed by a volunteer Board of Directors who are elected annually for a defined term. The Board represents a cross-section of our community, each bringing a specialized skill set to their volunteer role. They shepherd the Calgary Food Bank’s strategy, mission, vision and values.
Providing food support during unprecedented times
2020 was a year like no other in recent memory as the Covid-19 Pandemic touched every single person in our community in some way. Despite the many unknowns the pandemic presented in the early part of the year, we were able to continue to support the community because of the generosity of Calgarians.
