Support the Parkdale Community Food Bank
The mission of the Parkdale Community Food Bank is to ensure access to barrier free food, with choice, dignity and respect for all. No questions asked, we provide food to anyone who seeks assistance from our program. We believe that access to high quality, healthy food is a human right. We provide support to 14,000 families every month across the Downtown/West end of Toronto.
We will be collecting product donations at Sport Chek during race kit pickup hours, and at the Parkdale Community Food Bank tent in Race Central on race day. Please consider contributing to aid in their mission to end food insecurity within the Parkdale/High Park community.
