Food Rescue: July 2025

Amma Canada Food Rescue - July 2025
Amma Canada continues to partner with Georgetown Bread Basket and Brampton’s Knights Table food bank, to ensure that excess non-perishable food is offered to families and individuals living with food insecurity. Approximately 1 in 5 families in Peel Region experience some food insecurity. Last week one of our Food Rescue volunteers transported 119 lbs of assorted, slightly past-dated, non-perishable food to Brampton’s Knights Table. The boxes included assorted canned vegetables, soups, crackers, dried beans, and pasta. In addition, two bags of kale and Swiss chard fresh from Amma Canada Farms were also included. The Knight’s Table staff were very appreciative of the donated food.
If you would like to be involved in the Food Rescue initiative or have non-perishable food to donate, we continue to collect food at the Amma Canada Centre the back of the hall. The Knights Table food bank especially needs: kidney beans, cereal, cookies & crackers, instant noodles, Kraft Dinner, small bags of rice, canned soup (big & small), dry beans, chickpeas, kid snacks, juice boxes, sidekicks, Hamburger Helper, and canned fruits.
