30% of kids in Alberta are facing food insecurity.

Across Alberta, many families struggle to provide enough food, leaving some kids with just 1–2 meals a day and no lunch at school. Hope Mission steps in with school meals and food programs to help families in need. We need your help to make sure no child goes hungry!

We walk for kids like Fatima

We’re new to Canada and my mom and dad try hard to find good jobs to buy food for us and a home for us to stay in, but it’s hard. We don’t have enough money most days to buy food. But Hope Mission gives us meals and my parents don’t have to worry so much! 

We walk for dads like Mathias

My family would be wondering where our next meal would be coming from, but receiving meals from Hope Mission not only filled out bellies, but also our hearts. Thank you to all the donors for their generosity and for being a blessing to so many families like us! 

We walk for kids like Zach

Without Hope Mission, my family would’ve struggled. My family receives meals from Hope Mission and it made us feel happy and cared for! 

We walk for moms like Rose

We struggled to meet monthly food bills. The Hope Mission staff signed us up to receive the food hampers each month. They’ve been so helpful in providing food and snacks for the kids! Thank you so much for the help as life is very difficult at the moment. Having help is greatly appreciated and we look forward to it every month.
