Food insecurity is not having enough money to buy food.
More and more people are relying on food banks as the costs of living have risen, housing is no longer affordable, and wages and benefit programs have not kept pace.
In 2024 in Hamilton, more than one in four households (29.4%) lived with food insecurity.
Monetary donations are welcome.
