Hundreds of people will join hands for the Friends of Flemingdon Food Bank Charity Walk to raise money to assist the Flemingdon Community Food Bank.
On Sunday, June 13th 2010, a coalition of community organisations, agencies, faith communities, local businesses, politicians and concerned residents will be coming together with a shared goal: to assist the Food Bank in becoming sustainable once again so that no individual, child or family is deprived of their basic right to food.
The food bank is one of the largest in the city- serving 200 families a week. The Food Bank was initially run by the Red Cross. When they left the community, the Anglican Ministry ran the Food Bank from the Don Mills Plaza. It recently moved to 10 Gateway Boulevard, located at the corner of Don Mills Road and Gateway Boulevard. A coalition of Muslim organizations and Christian churches have since formed the new corporation known as the Flemingdon Community Food Bank.
