Food on the Move is back this week with 4 markets! That means multiple opportunities to stock up on fresh produce -- and maybe a book for the next snow day from @nlpublibraries #LibraryOnTheGo!

This morning CPA NL board members and staff partnered with @bridgestohope to volunteer time and resources to prepare fresh meals to be included in the food hampers distributed to clients. It was a wonderful initiative and we hope that this brings some comfort to those in need.

The Hunger Count report is always eye opening but this year's is particularly impactful.
In N.L. there was a 12.4% increase in food bank visits since last year and a 44.1% increase since 2019.
Food banks cannot replace a robust social safety net. This is not sustainable.

“We can’t keep up with this level of growth. It’s not sustainable.”
Canada is a nation struggling to make ends meet.
#HungerCount2023 found there were almost 2M visits to food banks in March – up by 32% in 2022 and 78.5% in 2019.

📣 If there are any Men's Winter Coats that you are no longer using, please consider donating them. As the days are getting colder and during the winter months, our community especially needs winter jackets.
Items can be dropped off at our office, 📍807 Water Street.
