North York food bank receives 'transformative' donation to help build new community hub | CBC News
"The Sprott Foundation will add $4 for every dollar donated to the food bank until a total of $4 million is raised, marking a transformative moment for the organization."
"The new hub will be three times larger than the existing space and will have ten times the cold storage capacity, significantly improving food distribution capabilities."
"Noble emphasized that the food bank has seen its usage more than double in recent years, indicating that the current operations are insufficient to meet the growing demand."
The North York Harvest Food Bank has secured a $4 million matching donation from the Sprott Foundation, enabling the construction of a new community food hub. This donation is the largest in the food bank's history and will significantly enhance its capacity to serve the community. The new hub will be three times larger than the current facility, with ten times the cold storage capacity. It aims to improve food processing and distribution, while also expanding workforce training and supporting community food programs.
