Donate to the Mayor's Annual Food Drive - Nov 30 - Dec 10, 2023

From November 30th - December 10th, we will be collecting donations for the Calgary Food Bank as part of the Mayor’s Annual Food Drive.

If you are able, residents are invited to drop off non-perishable food donations at one of several Ward 9 collection locations:

• YCAP Market at Wood’s Homes
  1008 14 St SE | Tel: 403-828-8017
  Hours: W-F 12am-6pm, Sat 10am-3pm (Closed Sun, M+T)

• Forest Lawn Library

• Ogden 50+ Activity Centre
  2102 69 Ave SE | Tel: 403-279-2003

  Hours: M-F 8am-4pm (closed weekends)

Or, beginning November 3oth, you are welcome to donate monetary funds to the Ward 9 Food Bank Fundraising page. (Please note: the fundraising page will not go live until the morning of Nov 30th.)

Like Food Banks across the country, the Calgary Food Bank has seen an unprecedented increase in demand this past year. In 2022, Council raised just over $80,000 in food and funds for Calgarians in need. We hope to surpass that number this year.

If you are able to help, please give generously this season.
