10th Annual Food Drive [2025]

- Category: Watercolours News
This year will mark our 10th annual neighbourhood food drive in support of our local food bank, The Compass Food Bank and Outreach Centre.
Together, over the past nine years, the compassion and generosity of everyone in our neighbourhood have provided our local food bank, The Compass Food Bank and Outreach Centre, with an incredible 40,000 pounds of much-needed donations. A need that unfortunately continues to grow.
Over the last five years, The Compass has seen the number of households it serves and the number of visits to its foodbank triple. Unfortunately, it is no different across Mississauga, where foodbank usage has increased significantly, with 1 in 13 households now using one.
PLEASE LEAVE ALL NON-PERISHABLE FOOD & TOILETRIES DONATIONS OUTSIDE YOUR FRONT DOOR ON SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 2025, NO LATER THAN 10:00 AM, so our volunteers do not miss picking up your generous items!
In recognition of the growing need in our community and our 10th year, we have set a highly ambitious 6,500-pound donation goal!
