it seems really easy to find places to give food to the food banks but really hard to find a place to receive food i mean sure its easy in big cities but in small cities its a deferent story my cousin was homeless once and had to walk over 60km all the way to Ottowa to find one
Food banks should also collect basic hygiene products (soap, toilet paper, tampons/pads, toothbrushes and dental supplies, diapers, etc.) and school supplies.
In Lethbridge they have a Stuff a backpack program in the last week of August so children of low income parents can have access the basic school supplies
