INSPIRING CHANGE


The right policy can inspire real change to alleviate poverty

Food Banks Canada plays an active part in not only relieving the immediate need for food today, but also affecting change to eliminate hunger tomorrow. Our policy and advocacy work with various levels of government is one of the top ways we do this—and it all starts by addressing the root cause, poverty.

Over the years, we have been working hard to advance poverty-reducing government policy recommendations in the following areas: 

CHILD HUNGER

SINGLE SENIORS

LOW-INCOME WORKERS

Our policy and advocacy work continues

Food Banks Canada continually develops and advocates for policies that reduce poverty, thereby decreasing food insecurity and overall food bank use. By creating and proposing sustainable and achievable policies over time, we continue to help build and push for a minimum level of support so that all Canadians can live outside of poverty.

Through this building block approach, we are ultimately bringing Canada closer to achieving a future where no one goes hungry.
