The founding mandate of the organizing committee which began over a quarter century ago has continued to focus on the collection of non-perishable food donations which has achieved remarkable success with a total of 107,000 lbs. of food collected last year in March 2019.

Many residents and community groups have provided financial contributions resulting from fundraising events and personal contributions in support of the Annual Community Food Drive.

In recognition and in response to inquiries on the financial donations process supporting the collection of food items, the following enhancements have been made on our website to assist our generous donors.

Each of the agencies supported by the Ancaster Community Food Drive can now be accessed directly by clicking on the Agency logo below. You will be directed to the Agency’s financial donation page.

As an example, a number of the residents of Ancaster have directed that their donation for support of the Ancaster Community Food Drive be designated to Ancaster Community Services (ACS) in support of their “Give where you live” campaign. Ancaster Community Services provides many important services and programs to residents in our own community of Ancaster. ACS does provide Emergency Food Service to residents with many other important services and programs reliant on the generosity of financial donations from the community.
