📢 2026 Back-to-School Campaign Launch
The Math Behind the Need 📢
We are bypassing the usual charity appeals to share the unvarnished math facing families in Metro Vancouver & the Fraser Valley. 📉
🛞 What Makes Us Different 🛞?
Most food banks focus on volume.
We focus on value.
We don't serve more people.
We serve people more.
Food Bank On Wheels Society provides a food hamper home delivery service directly to these vulnerable families. 🚐
We serve single-parent families who cannot access traditional food banks due to disability or illness in the family that prevent them from going to a traditional food bank thus needing our home-delivered food hamper service 🤝
Right now, a BC PWD single parent with disabilities and one child receives $2,930.82 monthly. 💵
However, they pay 73.4% of their benefit income just to cover rent ($2,150 Metro Vancouver). 🏘️
This leaves a staggering monthly deficit of $1,492 just to reach the Canada poverty level (MBM). 📉
After rent, their survival budget is $780.62, which is exactly $25.67 per day for two people. 🛒
When September arrives, a $25.67 daily budget cannot absorb the financial shock of back-to-school supplies and food. 🎒
That is why our Back-to-School fundraising campaign bridges this exact gap. 🏫
The Logistics of Your $250 Investment: ⚙️
Unlike traditional models, we deliver directly to their homes 🏡 🛍
Each Back-to-School Hamper provides 9-12 days of healthy food (valued at $360) plus a K-12 knapsack with $100 in school supplies. 🍎
Your partnership funds fresh produce, milk, cheese, and eggs, paired with high-quality meat donated by The Little Butcher in Newport Village in Port Moody. 🥩🥦
Your Donation Impact: 💥
$250: Fully funds the logistics, food, and supplied knapsack for ONE family. 1️⃣
$500: Secures delivery, food, and supplies for TWO families. 2️⃣
$1,000: Stabilizes FOUR families against the September deficit. 4️⃣
(+$100 per additional K-12 child/teen). ➕
The Timeline: ⏳
We must secure final funds by August 30th, 2026. 🗓️
Deliveries deploy exactly between September 5th–12th. 🚚
