Help Us Raise $35K to Save Cortes Island Food Bank's Operations

 

Our Crisis:

We are losing our current storage facility and must urgently convert two sea-cans on the Village Commons into a storage and operations hub.

 

The Solution:

We’re launching "YES-SEA-CAN!" – a community-powered fundraiser to:

  • Frame & insulate the sea-cans.

  • Install electrical & ventilation.

  • Install infrastructure, equipment (freezers and refrigeration) and shelving.

 

We need to raise $35,000 by the end of the summer to make this happen.

​

Please consider helping us to help your neighbours in need. 

​

All donations will be issued with tax receipts!

Food hamper pick-ups are every second Monday alternating between our two locations: ​

​

  • Gorge Hall (Whaletown) | 10 a.m. to noon.
     

  • Manson's Hall food hut (Mansons Landing) | 10 a.m. to noon.

 

We do our best to offer these regular pick-up times, but they might change around major holidays or in the event of a staffing shortage.

 

Request your food 2 days ahead of time to help us meet your needs.
