Did you know that 1 in 8 Canadian households struggle to put food on the table?
The Food Bank, established in 2008, is our flagship project and has been running for 11 years with support from 65 volunteers dedicated to serving the underprivileged.
In 2019, we served 7,257 families consisting of 34,599 individuals and 5,500 breakfasts. The total weight of foods distributed was 433,583 lbs and our cost was $271,623 dollars.
Please help us in this noble cause and earn Sadaqa J’aariah for yourself in the Hereafter.
Thank you and may Allah SWT reward you and your family immensely. Ameen.
