The Chestermere Regional Food Bank Foundation has been in operation since September 2007 and is run by a group of dedicated volunteers. We serve the City of Chestermere and surrounding areas.
We ensure every interaction is based upon our four pillars of strength:
Compassion - We strive to provide service in a discreet and empathetic manner.
Integrity - Ensuring every interaction with clients is confidential, respectful, and professional.
Partnership - We are committed to enhancing our current relationships and working with our community to build new ones.
Equality - No matter where we come from or what we have, life events can impact us all. We are all equal in our need for food.
All hands on deck! Casual volunteers help with food drives and special events. These energetic volunteers help behind-the-scenes at various events to raise awareness of food insecurity in our community.
We are currently looking to fill one vacancy on our Board of Directors.
Community Garden volunteers act as part of a team to plant, maintain, weed and harvest the Food Bank's 3 urban plots and 1 rural plot. This is a seasonal volunteer opportunity.
Clients drop in on Wednesday and Saturday mornings to choose from items that we have in excess or are past their best-before date that is safe to eat – no questions asked.
