You’re not just feeding neighbours today. You’re helping create a hunger-free Mississauga tomorrow. Here are just a few ways you’re adding your voice to the call for real, lasting change in our community.

Working with our clients to understand the barriers preventing access to healthy food

Through your support, we connect with our clients every day to better understand the challenges keeping them food insecure, so we can work towards solutions grounded in their experience.

Partnering with decision-makers to build real solutions to the root causes of hunger

We partner with Feed Ontario, Food Banks Canada, government, and other partners to work towards long-term policy solutions to overcome the root causes of hunger, including:

  • Protection for low-income renters
  • A minimum income floor
  • Affordable early learning and childcare
  • Food justice and racial equity
Advocacy Allies

Our team of Advocacy Allies are out in the community helping clients and community members add their voice to the drive for a hunger-free Mississauga, educating people on how to mobilize, how to vote, and how to call on their political representatives to make change.
