Community Support

Trinity United Church is pleased to support our Food Bank program on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  We are also a member of the Feed My Sheep Breakfast program together with St Mary’s and St Paul’s.

Clients to our Food Bank go through a brief intake process for their first visit. Our privacy policy will be introduced at that time and is posted for viewing for each Food Bank day.

Every organization within the network upholds Food Banks Canada’s Ethical Food Banking Code, ensuring consistent and respectful service for all.

Food Banks Canada, the provincial associations, and affiliate food banks and programs will:

  1.  Provide food and other assistance to those needing help regardless of race, national or ethnic origin, citizenship, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, income source, age, and mental or physical ability.
  2.  Treat all those who access services with the utmost dignity and respect.
  3.  Implement best practices in the proper and safe storage and handling of food.
  4.  Respect the privacy of those served and will maintain the confidentiality of personal information.
  5.  Not sell donated food.
  6.  Acquire and share food in a spirit of cooperation with other food banks and food programs.
  7.  Strive to make the public aware of the existence of hunger and of the factors that contribute to it.
  8.  Recognize that food banks are not a viable long-term response to hunger and devote part of their activities to reducing the need for food assistance.
  9.  Represent accurately, honestly, and completely their respective mission and activities to the larger community.
