4 Million Food ITEMS

4 Million Food ITEMS

Sep 11, 2014 | News

This year the Agapè Centre proudly recognizes our 43 years of service as the largest hunger relief organization serving Cornwall and the Counties. One way we measure our success is by pounds of nutritious food distributed to hungry people, however the weight of gratitude felt by our clients is immeasurable.

Working together, we can transform hunger into hope!
Over the past four decades, we have distributed more than 4 million fooditems. Instead of looking back on our accomplishments, we’re looking ahead toward the next 20 years of hunger relief for our community. We know that there is much to do to fight hunger in our communities we serve. Our long range goals include offering healthier nutritious food items, starting a community kitchen for families and children and continuously looking at social enterprise as one of our sustainable revenue generators.

This will allow us to serve more low-income children, families and older adults who don’t have access to nutritious food. As we look to the next twenty years we are excited to embrace our responsibility as the hunger resource and healthiest community food centre for Cornwall and the Counties. With the help of our family of supporters, we can break the cycle of hunger and impact the lives of literally thousands of people each year. What better investment can you think of than the return of hope, health and productivity to our communities? On behalf of the Agapè Centre and those we serve, thank you for your support and strength.
