There is a deep systemic rot of food insecurity in our city. In 2024, all of Toronto's food banks served 3.75 million clients - 1 in 10 Torontonians relying on food banks. On January 27, city council declared food insecurity an emergency in Toronto.
I spend time every week volunteering at Fort York Food Bank, serving food and providing groceries to my neighbours, and so far in 2025, FYFB has seen record-high numbers of 6000 clients every single week.
I'm joining Coldest Night of the Year with my neighbours, fellow volunteers, and community members to raise funds for Fort York Food Bank. I hope you'll support me by donating to my page!
