In Saskatchewan, kindness is what we do. 

CBC Saskatchewan works annually to help the less fortunate during the holiday season by promoting Food Banks of Saskatchewan.

This year, our ask is simple. Please consider donating. The goal is to raise $1 million.

Financial contributions allow food banks to better help those in need.

Inflation is driving hunger and food insecurity, and Saskatchewan's food banks are seeing increased demand. Your donations will ensure they are ready to help.

Robin Cote, South Branch President of the Saskatchewan First Nations Veterans Association, says Women of the Dawn founder Ivy Kennedy deserves to be recognized for her kindness and community work this season.

Another way to help

The face of hunger in our communities is real and there are many ways we can help. No matter how big or small, every act of kindness makes a difference.

Your community needs you. If you have time to give, you can volunteer at your local food bank. 

Whether you sign up for a shift at a food bank warehouse or help out with special events, every contribution makes a difference.
