Double your impact this Ramadan!

March 22 – April 20

Ramadan is a time for empathy, compassion, and giving. Let’s come together in the spirit of Ramadan to help feed hungry children, seniors, families, and neighbours across Mississauga.

The first $10,000 donated will be matched, dollar for dollar, by a generous anonymous donor to provide healthy food for twice as many meals!

The month of January saw the highest number of food bank users ever in the history of The Mississauga Food Bank with 13,326 food bank users. This is a 41% increase year over year. By joining the Give 30 movement in support of our Spring Drive, you will help us meet this emergency need that is only continuing to rise for our most vulnerable neighbours.

Here’s how you can support Give 30 this year:   

1. Make a financial donation! Help raise money to enable us to purchase fresh food in bulk and provide food for healthy meals to neighbours. $30 provides food for 30 meals, and with the match, that equals 60 meals!
2. Sign up today and create your own fundraising page this Ramadan in support of your hungry neighbours. Set a fundraising goal, and share your page with friends, family, and coworkers to give back in a meaningful way.
3. Host an event – Choose The Mississauga Food Bank as a community partner of choice when hosting a community event.
4. Challenge yourself to give up something for 30 days (e.g. coffee, sugar, etc.) to show solidarity.
5. Spread the word – Share updates with your friends on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok or LinkedIn.
6. Check out our volunteer opportunities!

Please consider making a monetary donation or organizing a fundraiser in place of a food drive. As we move our operations to a new facility, we have limited capacity to pick up and store food donations. If you are looking to make a food donation to the Give 30 campaign, we encourage you to drop off food at your local fire station in Mississauga or participating grocery stores across the city.
