This World Food Day - Will you join us?

For many Canadians, the news of the ongoing hunger crisis can feel really far away – but in this global village, everyone is our neighbour. To mark World Food Day, churches across Canada will join with people, organizations, and communities of faith to reflect on the reality of the millions of people who are hungry around the world.

Our Ration Meal resource is available to help your community join the conversation.
