It is truly great to live in a generous community. The Hamilton Community has supported Hamilton Food Share’s hunger relief activities since its inception in 1990. Without your support Hamilton Food Share could not exist. For information on holding a food drive, please visit https://www.hamiltonfoodshare.org/ to see how you can help. There is so much that you can do and every contribution makes such a difference. Every $1 you donate to Hamilton Food Share raises $5 worth of food!

Thank you to Matthew and Emmalee from for stopping by today!💙

They dropped off a generous cheque from their 2026 charity drive, and got to see where most of the magic happens (our warehouse!).

What can their $1,200 donation do at HFS? It can buy $6,000 worth of food, including fresh fruits and vegetables, for our community this summer.

Westburne has been powering Hamilton for decades, and this is just one of the many ways they continue to show up.

Thank you for your generous support and for looking out for the . 🧡

We wanted to share a small glimpse into a very big week. 🍪💛

And we wanted to say thank you. To every volunteer, early-morning decorator, and behind-the-scenes force. Truly, the real magic of week was you.

We can’t wait to share what you made possible. So stay tuned… and check back in tomorrow✨🫶💖

We can’t believe the final days of are here, but we’re feeling so incredibly lucky (and so proud of our city) after this week ✨❤️

Monday’s kick-off started with such a bang.
A room full of people showing up, a whole lot of cookies, a little bit of chaos, and so much heart.

And somehow that feeling carried through the whole week.

There have been so many hands behind the scenes, so many people showing up in big and small ways, and so many smiles because of it.

isn’t just a campaign. It’s the community coming together to not only share in all the joy and fun, but to make a real difference in the lives of their neighbours.

If you’ve been part of it in any way, we can’t thank you enough ❤️

It’s been a bit of a whirlwind, and we know the impact will last far beyond this week.

Let’s finish strong, Hamilton 💙💖

P.S. Don’t forget to keep tagging us - whether with you purchased or decorated cookies! We love to seem them 🍪✨🫶

We’re so incredibly close Hamilton!! Just 48 volunteer spots left to fill before week kicks off 🍪🎊

First, a huge thank you to everyone who has already signed up. You are truly the foundation of the campaign, and the enormous impact has on our community is in large part because of you! 💖

The more volunteers we have, the more cookies get decorated, the more cookies get sold, and the more we can give back to our community in Hamilton.

More hands = more cookies = less hunger.
Every shift truly matters!

We’d really love to get these last 48 spots confirmed by tomorrow, so if you’ve been thinking about it — well this is your sign!! There are still shifts where you can sign up with a friend, so feel free to rope someone into the fun while you’re at it.

Shifts are just 2 hours long and run throughout the week, with a handful still available on the weekend too.

And if you can’t volunteer but still want to help? Please share this post!

Many people don’t realize that simply showing up for a 2-hour shift makes them part of a nationwide campaign.

We’d appreciate whatever you can do to help spread the work. Thank you for standing with your neighbours and helping to fight hunger together 👊 🍪✨
