Edmonton's Food Bank, the first food bank in Canada, is led by an Executive Director who has been recognized with the Order of Canada for her over 20 years of work with the organization. Edmonton's Food Bank collects surplus and donated food and in 2008 distributed over 48,000 nutritionally-balanced hampers to people facing hunger in the community. Despite collecting over $13,000,000 in donated food last year, reserves for Edmonton's Food Bank (16% of program costs) indicate a vital need for funds in order to sustain their great results.
