11 year-old Savannah, is in girl guides and is an example to us all!

This picture is of the contributions that she made to our food bank in January.

She saved her birthday and Christmas money and collected bottles. Also, friends and family donated some to help. She loves to help people and animals.

Savannah was very excited about dropping the stuff off to the Gateway Food Bank, knowing that it was gonna be helping people because that’s a heart that she has for others!

We love you, Savannah and I know this is not the last time that we will see you. Thank you very much!

The Gateway Food Bank team!

Happy New Year, everyone! May this year bring you good health, happiness, and a fridge full of fresh, locally sourced food 🥗🥕! As we dive into new beginnings, let's make some resolutions that benefit both our bodies and our community 💪.

Here are a few ideas to get you started:

✨ Shop local: By supporting our neighbors and local producers, we're putting money back into our community and getting the freshest products possible 🥗.

✨ Reduce food waste: Plan your meals, use up leftovers, and compost food scraps to reduce waste and help our planet 🌎.

✨ Support the food bank: Whether it's donating non-perishables, volunteering your time, or spreading the word about our mission, every bit counts 🙏.

✨ Eat more plants: Incorporate more fruits, veggies, and whole grains into your diet for a healthier you 🥗.

✨ Cook at home: Not only is it cost-effective, but it's also a great way to spend quality time with loved ones 🍳.

✨ Get creative with food: Try new recipes, experiment with new ingredients, and find ways to make mealtime fun 🍴.

Wishing you all a happy, healthy, and sustainable new year from your friends at the Gateway food bank! 🎉

We love to see local businesses with a strong sense of community.

During this holiday season, the owner/operator of Dooly's Lower Sackville pulled up to our door with a truck bed full of food for our pantry.

Merry Christmas to all the wonderful members of our beautiful community.

We have a story to tell you.

As many as 75 children have gifts to open this morning after a family of two brought loads of presents and giftwrap to the food bank, intended for those who didn't have access to the same opportunities afforded to others.

Mother generously invited food bank clients to peruse the table upon which toys had lovingly been displayed while daughter wrapped the selected gifts for those families to take home and place under their Christmas trees.

May your holidays be merry and bright.

And what’s on my mind today here at the Gateway Food Bank????
Christmas hampers and what we’re putting in them!
We’re grateful to have lots of eggs, but we have no egg cartons to separate them into for the Christmas hampers.
Drop off at our back door at 10 Beaverbank Rd. in lower Sackville anytime today or tomorrow.
If it’s during snow, tie them up into a garbage bag.
We’re holding our breath, waiting for you!
👏 😊
