How can I get Food?

     First give us a call 403-845-7546 we will make an appointment for you.

 

When can I come in for an appointment?

Call for an appointment Monday - Friday.  We may be able to accommodate you the same day.​

​

Do you close for lunch? 

Yes. We generally close during lunch, but we might be able to accommodate you. Please call or drop by..

​​

What can I expect on my first appointment?

We ask that you bring in ID for each family member. We do not keep copies of the ID's we simply need to verify that you reside in our area and that each household member resides in your household.   We sit you down privately with one of our staff Members who gather your information and create a file.  If there are questions you refuse to answer that's okay, we can leave those blank. Bear in mind that if you come through our doors we will help you the best we can.  

​

 Who owns the Food Bank?

The Lord's Food Bank is a registered non-profit society. Our goal is to use the resources graciously donated to us to run our operations. ​

​

Can I be turned down from shopping with you?

We do everything to try to help anyone who needs help.  We even look for solutions for people who have egregiously violated our polices. For instance abuse of our Staff and volunteers. We would take steps to ensure the health and safety of all according to the policies that are in place.  Yet any staff member here would look for solutions for people to seek help. We are very gracious in our actions and our resources. We want to help those in need. We understand that each individual has a unique situation. We are not simply handing out  food. We are honestly trying to help each person that walks through our doors. 

​

What other programs do you have? 

We serve a hot meal to the public Every Tuesday and Thursday from 11:30am - 1:30pm.  We have some other initiatives such as a Community Kitchen and other programs that we are excited to be putting together and presenting this year. We also provide free CRA approved tax Clinics. Ask at your appointment or make an appointment to have your taxes completed here. Low income, no small businesses. 

​

Are you a Church?

No. As stated earlier we are a non-profit society.  We will help anyone who needs help regardless of there race, gender, eligious beliefs,  or whatever state you are in.  We do not want to judge you. Not our job. ​​​​​
