Right now, over 140,000 children in our province live in a home without enough food, yet there is an abundance of fresh surplus farm food available that is tilled back into the soil or sent out for disposal. Fortunately, our food banks and farmers are eager to help our communities.

Together, we can help Ontario farmers donate nutritious surplus food to help end hunger.

Add your name to our online petition to create a donation tax credit for farmers that donate to food banks.

Learn more about the background for this campaign.

You can help us bring together 5,000 voices of support before the end of August. The petition will be presented to Premier Dalton McGuinty before the legislature resumes in mid September for immediate implementation.

Add your name to our online petition today.

With your support, millions of pounds of fresh, local food will be provided to people facing hunger during this difficult time in Ontario.

Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,

Adam Spence
Executive Director
