Since 2002, Kawartha Lakes Food Source has been uniting our community to ensure no one goes hungry. We do this by: 1) Operating a central food hub that supplies local food banks, schools, and agencies serving neighbours in need. 2) Raising awareness about hunger and its root causes. 3) Partnering with other organizations to create lasting solutions to poverty and food insecurity. Why It Matters? Every month we help close to 1,800 food bank clients and 4,500 students by supporting 35 member agencies — including 10 food banks, 22 schools, and several health and social service partners. From our warehouse in Lindsay, we collect donated food and reclaim surplus from grocery stores — and thanks to monetary donations, we can also purchase fresh, nutritious staples like milk, eggs, and fruit in bulk. A single dollar in our hands stretches far beyond what most people can buy in a store, making cash gifts an incredibly powerful way to fight hunger. We are grateful for every gift, whether it’s food from your pantry or funds from your wallet, because together they allow us to provide not just meals, but dignity, stability, and hope.
