I worked with our great community to produce and facilitate unique campaigns that raised food, funds and awareness for our Social Profit Agency. Worked towards CSHFB's vision that everyone will have access to healthy food and opportunities for growth.The food bank actively and successfully partners with local retailers, farmers and food distributors to reclaim fresh food (produce, dairy, bakery) and recover in-store deli foods. These healthier foods are distributed to our over 1600 visitors each month as well to partner agencies. This endeavor was made possible with the assistance of the Walmart Foundation Grant and Food Banks Canada.The food bank's 15,000 square foot garden at RARE's Springbank Garden is successful in growing over 7,000 pounds of fresh produce for participants.

The Cambridge Self-Help Food Bank offers food and support to people and community groups in need within Cambridge and North Dumfries. We encourage self-reliance through programs and services.Our volunteer program actively works to ENGAGE volunteers in meaningful work and could not operate without their generous support. We strive to encourage a sense of community and extend a helping hand while developing each volunteer's unique strengths and life skills.The CSHFB has nearly 1000 Community Volunteers consisting of dedicated individuals and caring groups who, in 2013, contributed over 13,750 volunteer hours. This is in addition to our Co-Op Volunteers who contribute many needed skills and talents..We respect all volunteers equally and treat them like the precious resource they are."Volunteers don't get paid, not because they're worthless, but because they're priceless."- Sherry Anderson.

Volunteers play a beneficial role at Cambridge Memorial Hospital. They contribute to ensuring the very best patient care through their hard work, compassion and dedication. Our volunteers provide support to visitors, patients and their families by creating a supportive and caring environment. Cambridge Memorial Hospital is fortunate to have over 375 volunteers. Under the umbrella of the Cambridge Memorial Hospital Volunteer Association, they include Adult Volunteers, Student Volunteers, and Pastoral Care volunteers who during the last year donated over 45, 000 hours of their valuable time to the patients and staff at CMH. Volunteer assistance is provided to numerous areas of the hospital, including In-patient units, Out-patient services, Central Registration, Emergency Department, Palliative Care, The Hospital Elder Life Program, the Cambridge Memorial Hospital Boards, Day Clinics, Medical Imaging, Information Desk and much more. The Volunteer Association owns and operates several fundraising businesses that utilize volunteers including the HELPP Lottery, the Hospital Gift Shop and the Recovery Room retail store in downtown Galt. The Volunteer Association also owns and operates the Hospitals Tim Hortons and a successful Vendor Program.
