Ways to Help

Make a difference in the community

Help Us Carry Hope Throughout the Entire Year

As we launch our 2025–2026 Fundraising Campaign, we’re inspired by the strength and compassion of our community. Your support plays a vital role in helping us provide nutritious food to families throughout Cochrane and the surrounding area.

Every donation makes an impact. Your generosity helps us fill hampers with fresh fruits and vegetables, milk and dairy products, eggs, frozen meat, bread, and pantry staples—ensuring local families have access to healthy meals.

Bring hope year-round

Help Lift Up The Community Today

Thanks to donors like you, we’ve supported thousands of families over the past year. Yet, the need continues to grow. Food insecurity doesn’t end after the holidays—it lasts all year long. Your contribution today will help sustain our food bank through the winter months and beyond, providing consistent, year-round support to those who need it most.

Whether you’ve been with us for years or are giving for the first time, your generosity truly makes a difference. Together, we can ensure that no one in our community goes hungry. Please consider making a donation today.
