Holiday Appeal
As the holiday season approaches, we are reminded of the power of food to bring people together and create lasting memories. More than just sustenance, food is a source of connection, tradition, and shared joy. For those facing food insecurity, however, the holidays can be an especially challenging time of year.
At Feed Nova Scotia, we understand that food insecurity is not just about empty cupboards. It is also about the isolation and loneliness that can accompany it. And for the early 60,000 people who were supported by food banks last year,
That’s why we’re reaching out – this holiday season; we need your support.
Your donation will allow people to re-connect with their culture, with their traditions, and with their community, through food. It will also ensure Nova Scotians far and wide can experience the holiday season the way it was intended: with a good meal, surrounded by loved ones. By supporting Feed Nova Scotia, you're offering hope, compassion, and a brighter future.
We are also excited to introduce our new Holiday Fund – which allows organizations to ensure they can support their unique communities and the celebrations most important to them. It’s also a way to guarantee our impact is being felt across the province, all year round, from Yarmouth to Glace Bay, and from Halifax to Amherst.
But the truth is hunger isn’t limited to the holidays – every day, almost 30% of Nova Scotians face the reality of not having access to sufficient, safe, and nutritious food. Your donation also allows us to continue advocating for policy-based solutions, so that no one in our province has to worry about where their next meal is coming from.
As you come together with your friends, family, and community this holiday season around familiar foods and comforting warmth, we hope that you will consider helping others experience the same. With your help, we can show food insecure Nova Scotians that they aren’t alone.
