The Regina Food Bank announced a partnership with The Mosaic Company, which is dedicated to helping those experiencing food insecurity.
Mosaic’s five-year, $1,000,000 contribution is a substantial show of support for the innovative Community Food Hub, Canada’s first at-scale choice model food bank.
This investment from Mosaic will assist in ongoing program and operational needs and play a pivotal role in developing an innovative Community Food Hub.
This hub, a first-of-its-kind initiative in Canada, emphasizes the significance of choice, allowing individuals and families accessing the services to select items that align with their unique needs, promoting a sense of empowerment and dignity.
The Regina Food Bank anticipates the grand opening of Regina’s Community Food Hub this summer.
Introducing this pioneering model is expected to generate enthusiasm and high demand, highlighting the importance of providing choices to those in need.
The food hub aims to eliminate barriers and stigma, creating a retail-like environment conducive to teaching financial and nutritional literacy.
