This is What Hope Can Look Like in the Fort

Hopeful for a better, sweeter tomorrow, the Fort Saskatchewan Food Gatherers Society—caring operators of your local Food Bank—are cooking up a community experience to feed hungry hearts and minds as well as body. With the potential to serve a full menu of cooking, nutrition, and family and personal advancement classes, as well as volunteer opportunities and corporate team building, the Fort Saskatchewan Food Bank is growing into the Nourishment Centre and is widening its doors to both the community at large and to clients in need in order to burn through stigmas and social classes and strengthen the very fabric and future of our community.

NOURISHMENT CENTRE EVENTS

 

2024 Alberta Wide Food Drive – September 28

This is What Support Local Can
Look Like in the Fort

By organizing and hosting an event, local business and industry can serve to enhance the foundations of the community at large so that it in turn may solidify the livelihoods of owners and operators like you. With your generous charitable donation of time, you’re sure to add to, and benefit from, the economic strength and fortitude of the City of Fort Saskatchewan.

GET Your Fill

We understand that life can seem like nothing more than a stressful exercise in choosing which bills to pay. It’s all too easy to feel lost and leftover… It’s ok to be fed up. In fact, that’s why we’re here.

GIVE Your Fill

Give here and now not just to help others, but to help yourselves. Please give courageously and generously in hopes that one day we will no longer have such a pressing need to give.
