In Canada, almost half of our food goes to waste, contributing to Climate Change and wasting precious resources. "Imperfect" fruits and veggies are often thrown out, or food past its best-before date gets discarded.

Meanwhile, nearly a quarter of households in Canada struggle to afford the healthy food they need to thrive.

You can help change that.

Thanks to generous people like you, Food Stash is rescuing more than 100,000 meals' worth of food every month. This includes unsold dairy, fruits, and veggies from grocery stores and farms that would otherwise go to waste. We ensure this food reaches over 12,000 people weekly, nourishing both their bodies and their lives.

Fruits, vegetables and proteins are so expensive and costs of living are so high that many people in our community have to choose between buying healthy groceries and buying medication. For example, most of our Rescued Food Box home delivery program members—people with limited income, health challenges, or disabilities—often went hungry or couldn’t eat balanced meals before joining the program.

But thanks to supporters like you, that’s changing. Each week, your support helps deliver fresh, healthy food to people who need it and appreciate it.

The food you help provide is so much more than a meal. It’s a chance for families to gather around the table, for neighbors to connect, and for people to have the healthy, life-giving food they deserve.

Right now, every dollar you give will be matched* so your gift goes twice as far.

Please donate today and share the value of good food.

Your donation always makes a big difference, no matter the amount. 

Your support gives us the power to:

• Support the amazing work of 38 organizations, from shelters to youth drop-in centers, with deliveries of healthy food for their essential programs (like hot meals and community kitchens)
• Directly deliver Rescued Food Boxes to over 100 low-income households
• Run our unique Rescued Food Market, serving up to 160 shoppers each week
• Host a 24/7 Community Fridge + pantry for neighbours to take what they need and leave what they can
• Work with local, regional, and national networks to tackle food waste system-wide

Thank you for your Support!

*Eligible donations will be matched up to $100,000 in total, until December 31, 2024, thanks to South Flats by PCI Developments and Low Tide Properties.
