Food For All Fundraiser
In It Together for the Food Banks
To celebrate our shift to the new SCHA structure, we are hosting an “in it together” Fundraiser to support the Sunshine Coast Food Banks.
Members of the SC Healthcare Auxiliary have consistently contributed to the four food banks in the Coast: the Pender Harbour Food Bank, the Sunshine Coast Food Bank in Sechelt, and in Gibsons, the St. Bart’s Food Bank and The Salvation Army’s Harvest of Hope Food Bank.
Through this fundraiser, the public can make cash donations in a designated container located at the Thrift Store, Gift Shop, and Loan Cupboard. You can also DONATE HERE.
The Food for All Fundraiser will continue until the end of our fiscal year, providing the entire summer to gather contributions.
Keep an eye out for our posters and social media campaign launching next week.

The demand for Food Bank services has risen significantly in the past three years with each food bank seeing both a rise in usership and a decrease in donations. Help fill that gap by donating today!
