Durham Region Municipalities come together to support Feed the Need in Durham
Feed the Need in Durham Logo
Clarington, the Region of Durham, and other area municipalities are coming together this National Hunger Action Month to help raise awareness, food donations and funds to fight hunger in the community.
Hunger is an important issue that affects individuals, seniors, and families throughout the Region. As Durham Region continues to rapidly grow and food prices increase, more people are using food banks and related services than ever before. The Region and area municipalities are taking action to address this need in the community.
From September 5 to 27, it will be even easier for residents, businesses and community groups to donate non-perishable food items with more drop-off locations than ever located throughout Durham.
