Food Bank
Community Share provides a three-day supply of food, twice per month, to individuals and families who live within our catchment area. We serve the area from Bayview Avenue (east side) to Victoria Park (west side) and 401 (south side) to Eglinton Avenue (north side). For new participants, identification with name and address is required to register. Participants can choose non-perishable items in a market-style model. We provide fresh produce, milk, eggs and bread.
Delivery Program Participants who are unable to come to the food bank in person, may apply to have a hamper delivered right to their door. Referral Service Community Share currently offers a referral service for participants who would like to be connected to other social services within the GTA. Please call 416 441 3209 to leave a message for our Community Navigator, who will get back to you. Garden In 2013, Community Share and Overland Learning Centre partnered to create the Overland Environmental Learning Garden (OELG), located next door to the food bank on Toronto District School Board property. The garden provides an outdoor educational space for adult ESL learners, as well as fresh produce for our participants. Kitchen Our dine-in healthy snack program, community kitchens and cooking workshops are currently on hold since the COVID-19 pandemic. |
