Spring Into Action Food Drive

APRIL 19 – 25

Spring is a time of growth— and a good reminder of the growing issue of food insecurity in Calgary. We are growing alongside it and trying to meet the need for food support in our community. We can’t do it alone! That’s why we are asking you to be a part of the Calgary Food Bank’s Spring into Action Food Drive.

Make a virtual food donation, host a traditional food drive, or share our poster to help us make food accessible to everyone in our city!

Host A Food Drive

Host a traditional food drive. People collect nonperishable food items, filling up boxes provided by the Calgary Food Bank. We will pick them up at the end of the food drive, providing the final weight of your donations.
Door to door food drive. Drop off bags and flyers provided by the Calgary Food Bank in approved neighbourhoods and pick them up on the collection date a few days later.
Hold a virtual food drive. Put a link or QR code in a newsletter, bulletin, or online. This QR code will link to a virtual food drive where participants can choose a meal to donate and process the payment online.

We could not do what we do without you. Thank you for supporting our mission of making food accessible to everyone in our city.
