The Fort Saskatchewan Food Gatherers Society has served the community for 40 years from numerous locations, providing food bank services to those in need. In our new location, we have evolved into a Nourishment Centre poised to augment our long-term service focused on a community experience to feed hungry hearts and minds as well as bodies. We are expanding our programs and services to include a community kitchen.

With the support of local donors and grants, we now can address the need for additional services for our community. Redesigning our spaces with a ten-year plan for optimal utilization will enable thoughtful expansion, fiscal responsibility and provide additional support services to the people of Fort Saskatchewan.

Our building was erected in 2015 and has not undergone any renovations since that time. The single story approximately 16,000 square foot building was originally designed and constructed to meet the needs of a high-end car dealership, with a showroom and seven automotive bays. Renovation to the spaces will enable completion of our transition to a full-service food insecurity centre. This project is the realization of all the hopes and dreams of countless volunteers over four decades.

This posting will remain open until 2:00PM MST on Monday, February 17, 2025.

As a charitable organization, the Fort Saskatchewan Nourishment Centre’s primary role is to help support local residents and families during times of food insecurity, through the thoughtful collection and distribution of a healthy variety of foods and goods, and even more diverse, longer-term strategies designed to strengthen and enhance the lives of others; vanquishing not just the sharp pangs of an empty stomach, but the stigma associated with the asking for, and acceptance of, much needed help. The Fort Saskatchewan Food Gatherers Society is committed to the provision of empathy, goodwill and food and product charity in a safe, comfortable and welcoming environment free from fear and judgement.
