About Prince Albert Community Meals

We are a group of people who felt something needed to be done to help the homeless and the less fortunate once the Share A Meal was closed down in April 2015. We have a board of directors that consists of 5 volunteers that meet monthly, where we try and find ways to fundraise to keep our program going. The groups listed are those who have supported the meals that we are able to do and throughout the year. The PACM also does BBQ fundraisers to keep the program going as well.

This past summer PAGC’s Summer Program students were introduced to volunteering; PACM provided the bread and the cold cuts for making sandwiches. The students made the sandwiches then proceeded to the downtown area to hand them out to those who wanted to eat.

We have hosted two turkey dinners since the inception of the group, where we have gained support from local businesses. Our goal is to eventually open up a kitchen where we can serve hot meals on a daily basis and replace the much needed share a meal. For the time being a group of volunteers gather on Monday evenings to make sandwiches that get handed out by Steve Kember in the front of Margo Fournier Centre.

With your help and support of our The Coldest Night Of the Year Walk- we hope to be able to provide hot meals daily to the homeless and dissenfrachised.
