Fredericton Community Services
Inc. better known as The
Fredericton Food Bank, is a registered not
for profit organization located
at 860 Grandame Street, Fredericton, NB. Started in
1983, the Food Bank is an outreach program of the
Seventh-day Adventist Church.
Our Mission is to provide emergency food and clothing to
those in need:
To provide
education in the areas of health, personal financial
management, and other areas as determined by community
needs, with the intention of helping those in need towards
self-sufficiency.
To
provide assistances in times of natural disaster.
Food, and clothing are distributed free of charge
once monthly to individuals and families who request assistance for emergency situations.
Food is collected daily from bakeries, grocery stores
and supporters. Many churches designate one Sunday a
month as Food Sunday. The community is generous with its
food raising campaigns.
Individual and needy families range in age from infancy
single parenthood and senior citizens on fixed incomes.
The common denominator among these people is centered on how
higher costs in rent, gas, and heating leave them no
monetary resources to buy stable food supplies.
The Center's continual success and operation is dependent
upon volunteers and donations from individuals, businesses,
churches and other organizations.
