Giving Tuesday

More than a million Ontarians visited a foodbank in the last year, the eighth consecutive year that food bank use has increased, according to a new report from Feed Ontario.  As a diocese, we are continuing to respond to growing food insecurity by hosting and stocking community fridges, running food banks and community meal programs, cultivating community gardens, and delivering prepared meal boxes to those most in need in our communities. 

In response, we're inviting donations once again for Giving Tuesday to support the life-saving food security work happening across our diocese!

Thanks to a generous donor, all donations will be matched, up to $10,000. Funds raised will go directly to our parishes, missions, and affiliated food security agencies to help meet the overwhelming need, ahead of the Christmas season.  

Make your donation here.

The intention of the diocese is to distribute all funds raised before the end of the year. St. Jude's food ministries should speak to the Rector to apply for funding from this diocesan fund.
