Food Donations
If you are thinking of donating, please call us first at 250-354-1633 or 778-463-5028 to ensure we can put your generosity to good use. We have limited storage space and aren’t always able to receive larger donations. We DO accept fresh produce, including fruit.
𝗗𝗼:
– Make sure fruit is in good condition and will last at least a week.
𝗣𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁:
– Leave donations outside. We’re closed Friday–Sunday, and fruit left outside can attract animals and go to waste.
– Drop off overripe fruit. We need enough time to sort, process, and distribute donations.
