Food Rescue
Food rescue is the process of gleaning viable food so that instead of going to waste, it’s redirected to support local community members. We collect food directly from the food industry and redirect it to the community through our programs and Food Link.
Community Meals
The Food Link program provides food and supplies to qualified organizations so they can focus their resources on important program delivery dealing
with the root causes of food insecurity​.

Senior Hampers
We provide a hamper service to five
low-income seniors buildings, twice a year. We have designed a seniors friendly list of food options for our guests to choose from. This provides an accessible service for everyone!
With the help of our Food Rescue Program, we can deliver fresh produce, dairy, baked goods, and meat to five low-income seniors’ buildings each week. Our outreach team enjoys coffee with the seniors that attend the program and and provide additional support individually as requested.
Senior Food Delivery

School Support
We believe that schools are vital to the community. We want school to be a positive part of a child’s day and an outlet for necessities. With our Food Rescue program, we are able to provide schools with bread products, yogurt, milk, cereal, fruit cups, granola bars, and much more, allowing children to focus on their studies and enjoy their school day.
Hampers
We partner with agencies in our community to help support individuals and families with food by referral. Agencies fill out paperwork, send it in, and our outreach teams will then connect with you to book you in for a food hamper! If you need more information on our food hamper program, please call us at 780-870-1060 or email outreach@theolivetreelloyd.ca
