Because we believe it is important to create places and occasions that bring community together.

Vancouver Food Runners

Our partnership with Vancouver Food Runners helps us get our extra bread to the people in our community who need it most! To date, VFR has helped us donate over 88,000 pounds of baked goods (mainly bread), which has gone to 36 of their nonprofit partners. Bonus: this excess food has also been redirected from the landfill, which has an added benefit of helping our planet!

Plus, check out this segment from Our City Tonight TV that highlights how Vancouver Food Runners is helping Granville Island businesses reduce food waste. 

Donations

We support charitable organizations and social initiatives actively working with people in need of food, youth education, and sustainability in food and agriculture. Organizations include First United, Jewish Family Services, and Lotus Light Charity, among others. We ensure that any unsold goods leftover at the end of the day are donated to local charities. Additionally, Vancouver Food Runners help us connect surplus food with numerous other nonprofits.
