Cancelled
Where
Villages across Dundas and Stormont County (specific areas TBA, depending on availability of volunteers)
Due to social distancing measures during the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 Fill-a-Bag Food Drive has been cancelled. If you’d like to help during these difficult times, please consider making a cash donation here.
Each year, we ask everyone in our community to come together to make a difference and help us stock our shelves so that none of our neighbours go hungry this summer.
Last year, the Fill-a-Bag Food Drive collected over 17,000 lbs of food!
Here’s how simple it is to ensure none of our neighbours went hungry during the Summer::
-
On Weekend #1: Volunteers deliver an empty bag to your door
-
Throughout the Week: You filled the bag with food and left it on your front porch.
-
On Weekend #2: Volunteers pick up your donations!
Volunteers Wanted!
-
On week 1, you and your team will leave an empty bag on the front porch or in the mail box of each residence. This step will take about an hour.
-
On week 2, between 1 and 3 pm you and your team will return to pick up the food donations. This step will take no more than a couple of hours.
-
Your team will then drop off all donations at a central location.
To register teams, or if you have any questions, contact Jane at admin@communityfoodshare.ca or
(613) 898-0781.
I Didn’t Get a Bag
If the weekend has come and gone, but nobody dropped a bag off at your door, please email admin@communityfoodshare.ca or call any of our locations. A volunteer will be happy to come by and drop off a bag.
Nobody Picked Up My Bag
If no one has picked up your bag by 4 pm, please call 613-898-0781. We’ll arrange for a volunteer to pick-up your bag.
