Programs


We recognize that the root cause of poverty and homelessness is complex and diverse, it is our focus to achieve sustainability and food security for all.

Sharing is caring:

This is Grande Prairie’s only meal delivery program for the most vulnerable population in the city. Our innovative approach involves redirecting excess food products from establishments in the city, directly to those in need. This two-pronged approach aims to reduce food inequality in our community while reducing food waste. .

  • We approach local food establishments to donate one meal each day.
  • If the food establishments decide to participate, our volunteers collect any number of meals on weekly, bi-weekly and monthly basis.
  • The donated hot meals are packed delivered within thirty minutes to Rotary house.
  • Saturday Supper: Each Saturday, our volunteers prepare meals in a certified commercial kitchen and deliver them to Rotary House (Shelter for Homeless).

Stamp Out Period Poverty:

Period poverty is defined as the inadequate access to menstrual hygiene tools and education, including sanitary products and cleaning facilities (American Medical Women’s Association). Period poverty is a widespread issue that affects homeless women without a stable and consistent place to live. The average female experiences more than 2,200 days of menstruation in during their lifetime, and spends $13.25 each month on menstrual products, which adds up to a lifetime total of nearly $6000. These astronomical costs force many low-income and marginalized women to choose between purchasing food or a place to sleep, and monthly hygiene products.

With this project, our goal is to provide dignity and access to safe and hygienic menstrual products for low-income and marginalized women.
