Our Mission
DONATIONS
The St. Joseph's Community Food Bank in Pembroke is a registered charity opened in 1986. We are a non-denominational, non-profit, non-political charity. We do not receive government funding. All food and monies are donated by local individuals, businesses and organizations.
The Food Bank relies on fundraising events, donations of money, food and gifts-in-kind from our generous community members and organizations. We are extremely grateful for your generosity. For information on how to donate, please go to our Donations page.
Food insecurity in Pembroke has grown to the point where our 1980’s era infrastructure, cannot keep up with the expanded need for warehousing and refrigeration space. The Food Bank needs help to fund the costs of expansion.
Volunteers are always needed. If you are interested in donating your skills and giving back to the community we would welcome your involvement.
