🌱 "I'm so excited to take them home and grow them on our balcony. My mom loves basil and puts it in everything."

One student in our Youth Food Labs: Gardening program shared this after seeing her basil seeds sprout for the first time, excited to continue growing them at home with her family.

Moments like this are happening consistently across our youth programs, and since April 2026, we’ve welcomed young people through over 30 sessions, each one offering hands-on time to plant, cook, and learn through food.

Programs like these are part of what makes us more than a food bank. Donate today to support youth programs that inspire learning, connection, and growth in our community πŸ‘‰ https://bit.ly/3Q7Ghl6

🚐 We're looking for volunteer drivers!

A few hours of your time can help get donated food from local grocery stores and community partners back to the Cambridge Food Bank, where it can make its way to families who need it most.

If you have a valid G licence, a clean driver's abstract, and are comfortable driving a cargo van, we'd love to hear from you.

Interested? Sign up online at https://bit.ly/4e5sTHy or email our Volunteer Coordinator at [email protected] with your interest in driving and we’ll connect you with next stepsπŸ’š

Last week, we were honoured to receive a very special donation.πŸ’š

In memory of their daughter, Kristen Carter, who passed away suddenly last year at the age of 27, her family donated 27 birthday cakes and celebration packages to be shared with individuals and families accessing the Cambridge Food Bank.

As part of a day dedicated to random acts of kindness in Kristen’s memory, this thoughtful gift will help bring moments of celebration, joy, and connection to others in our community.

We are deeply grateful to Kristen’s family for choosing to honour her legacy in such a meaningful way. πŸ’š

What an incredible show of community spirit! Thanks to your generosity, our Spring into Action Food & Fund Drive raised an amazing $238,423 to help support neighbours experiencing food insecurity in our community πŸŽ‰.

A special thank you to Cedar Signs Inc for their generous matching donation, helping every dollar go even further during the campaign.

From workplace fundraisers and community events to individual gifts and creative giving initiatives, this campaign demonstrated that there are so many ways to make a difference while bringing people together around a shared purpose. Every contribution, big or small, helped create a stronger, more caring community πŸ’š.

Thank you to everyone who donated, organized events, volunteered, shared our message, and inspired others to get involved. Together, you're helping ensure that our neighbours have access to healthy food and the support they need.

A big thank you to Sharon and her friends at the Anglican Churches in Cambridge for putting together a charity garage sale in support of the Cambridge Food Bank.

Through their creativity, generosity, and community spirit, they raised over $2,125, which will help provide 4,250 meals for neighbours in our community.πŸ’š

Fundraising does not always have to look traditional. From garage sales to local events, there are so many simple but meaningful ways to come together and support one another.

Thank you for showing what community care looks like in action.
