Food For Life

Food for Life is a food recovery program. Every day, seven days a week, we collect surplus perishable food (baked goods, fruit and vegetables, prepared foods, dairy and meat) from grocery stores,restaurants and the corporate food sector in Halton region. Our emphasis is on fresh food that we can deliver quickly to those in need. We deliver this food, same day, to over 40 community social service organizations and over 45 outreach programs which we have established in low-income neighbourhoods in Oakville, Burlington, Milton, Acton and Georgetown. Food for Life assists in filling the gap between social assistance and living costs by providing nutritious perishable food to families on a weekly basis.
