Holiday Appeal

Help make a food secure Nova Scotia a reality this holiday season.

Rates of food insecurity in Nova Scotia are higher than ever, with over 40% of our children living in food insecure households and food banks across the province regularly reaching new records. As we all try to wade through this affordability crisis, many of our neighbours are being left behind.

Every dollar donated during the holiday season directly supports over 130 food banks, meal programs, and shelters across the province as they try to keep up with the demand. It also goes towards continuing our advocacy work, allowing us to keep fighting for solutions to food insecurity, in hopes that next year, we aren’t back here again.

So, for one final push, we’re asking our community to show up for one another one last time in 2025. Will you answer the call?

Feed Nova Scotia and the network of members are located in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq Peoples, and we acknowledge them as past, present, and future caretakers of this land. This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship” which Mi’kmaq, Wəlastəkwiyik (Maliseet), and Passamaquoddy Peoples first signed with the British Crown in 1725. We are all Treaty people.

We acknowledge that African Nova Scotians have existed and persisted on the traditional land of the Mi’kmaq for more than 400 hundred years and their significant presence has contributed to the existence of Nova Scotia.

We are grateful to live and work in Mi’kma’ki.
