Working Together Toward A Hunger Free Community
Hamilton Food Share
We are Hamilton’s emergency food shipping & receiving hub and the systems coordinator for the emergency food network comprised of 23 hunger relief programs operating in neighbourhoods across our city.
Just $20 will provide $100 worth of healthy food.
Your generous gift will ensure that children, families, seniors, and other neighbours facing hunger have nutritious food on their table this Thanksgiving—and over the long, difficult months to come.

The 2023 Hamilton Hunger Report
Over the past year, there has been an alarming surge in the number of people relying on the emergency food sector to meet their basic needs across Canada. In Hamilton, the increase in the number of visits being made to hunger-relief programs is cause for great alarm. The ability to absorb the increased need in our community is pushing our system beyond its capacity.
