We Fight Hunger in the North.

The Food Bank Society of the Yukon  is a community-based organization that provides emergency food to people in need. We provide emergency food hampers to as many as 1900 people a month.

We are generously supported by many individuals, families, schools, churches, businesses and other organizations throughout the year.

Together, we all help feed hungry people in our community.

What do We Do?

Whitehorse

Every calendar month a person can access a Hamper that has seven days worth of food in it. Hampers are sized to that of members of each family.

Communities

Many Communities across the Yukon, receive a shipment of  Hampers (shelf stable food only) each month, these hampers have approximately seven days worth of food in it. Contact out Manager of Community Service, Chris, to figure out how to get on the distribution list for your community. mvcs@whitehorsefoodbank.ca
