The Food Bank aims to help undergraduate students dealing with food insecurity. Food insecurity refers to the inability to acquire or consume a balanced diet that is of adequate quality and quantity. This can oftentimes create challenges sustaining one’s wellbeing: physically, mentally, and academically.
Food Bank Parcel Program
This service offers a completely free parcel service that operates throughout the full calendar year, providing 5 parcels per term that accommodate most dietary restrictions and typically last a week or more. If you require assistance outside of what the Food Parcel Program can offer, please reach out to: Waterloo - foodbank@wlu.ca; Brantford - lbfoodbank@wlu.ca and let us know how we can help!
