Feeding our Neighbours during the COVID-19 Pandemic

2020-10-06

We have increased our response to emergency need and their network of non-profit organizations and committed volunteers are working harder than ever to help our neighbors in need.  We have doubled down on our operations to meet the new challenges and remain focused on our primary mission to collect and distribute food to those who need it most in our community. 

The challenges will continue.  Along with our food bank colleagues from across Canada, Feed the Need in Durham is very concerned about the medium- and long-term impacts that COVID-19 and the associated economic downturn will have on the lives and livelihood of members of our community.  Even as we work with our network to respond to the emergency needs of our community, we are planning for our ongoing response to the growing and significant needs of our community over the next 6 – 24 months.  All of our work and investments in our capacity today, will lay the foundation for our ability to respond to hunger in the challenging months ahead.

Meet our new friend and future best-selling author, Hope! Hope and her Grandma, Melanie, wrote and illustrated a book together called Falestah the Fairy of Wonder. Hope decided that 50% of all profits would be donated to Feed the Need in Durham and the other 50% would be saved toward her future education. All of the copies that they printed sold, and Hope and her Grandma recently stopped by Feed the Need to share their donation of $300!
•
Hope has been interested in writing since the moment she could hold a pencil! She and her Grandma started writing Falestah the Fairy of Wonder in Summer 2019, when Hope was only 7 years old. After the sudden loss of her mother in Fall 2019, Falestah the Fairy of Wonder was put on hold as the family journeyed through grief. Hope and her Grandma rediscovered their unfinished book at the start of the pandemic and decided they wanted to finish it.
