Team Second Harvest will be virtual for the annual Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon charity challenge and we hope you will join us! Our goal this year is to raise $20,000 which will allow us to rescue and deliver enough fresh, healthy food for 40,000 meals for people experiencing hunger.
In Canada alone, 58% of all food produced is lost. This is socially unjust and ecologically unsustainable. But you can do something about it. Join our free online learning sessions and learn how to reduce and recover your food waste where you live and work.
Second Harvest is proud to have been chosen as one of the Canadian organizations included in this year’s 24 Good Deeds calendar, where counting down to Christmas also means giving back! It’s the perfect way to countdown for friends, family and co-workers alike!
Goodwill mixed with corporate might, physical strength and a dash of laughter are a powerful combination. This is especially true when it sheds light on the important work surrounding food rescue and hunger relief. Such was the case at Second Harvest’s second annual Hero Truck Pull challenge.
After a decade of volunteering with the St. Lawrence Market Food Rescue team, Una and Tracy are hanging up their aprons. We spoke to them about the importance (and rewards) of rescuing good, fresh food from the market and delivering to social services organizations.
