At Fernwood Neighborhood House and the Good Food Box, we know that joy and connection often happen around food. Meals aren’t just nourishment—they’re moments of laughter, shared stories, and the warmth of community.
The Gift of Good Food annual fundraiser kicks off for another year this Monday, November 18 until midnight on December 31, 2024. This holiday season, we’re raising funds to strengthen food access for families facing food insecurity across our region. From fresh fruits and vegetables to meals for children, families, seniors, and youth, our programs address the immediate needs of people in our community.
You can get involved by donating online at thegiftofgoodfood.ca/donate from November 18 to December 31, 2024.
Start a fundraising team with friends, family, or co-workers and reach your goal that supports folks in your community. Register your team online at fernwoodnrg.ca/ggf-fundraising-teams. If you want to give back and work with people you love to raise funds as a team, we’ve got ideas for you. You could organize an event like a potluck meal with friends, house concert, bake sale, movie night, or bike ride to collect donations for the Gift of Good Food. We’re here to support you with ideas and advice on how to make your fundraising dreams come true.
