Food Share Program at CCSS Cumberland Community Schools Society
NOURISH

Food Share

The Food Share provides regular deliveries of food hampers to Cumberland residents who are experiencing financial barriers to purchasing food. Established in 2000, the program is a community based initiative aimed at building a food-secure community. We believe that everyone, regardless of background, income, or other factors should have reliable access to nutritious food.

If you need help:

  1. If you are currently unable to access food due to financial restraints, please fill out our FOOD ASSISTANCE REQUEST FORM.
  2. Stop by the Food Shed at 2688 Penrith Avenue and take home a few items.

Food Hampers are delivered every 2nd Friday and include fresh produce, dairy, meat (or alternatives) and bread. The program is open to Cumberland residents who are experiencing financial barriers to meeting their food needs.

For more information please email foodshare at ccssociety.org or check out our blog post on the Cumberland Food Bank.
