About Parkland Food Bank Society

The purpose of Parkland Food Bank is to address the needs of hunger among residents of Spruce Grove, Stony Plain and Parkland County.

Read More

The Tri-Region is facing greater need than ever before! We are currently giving over $240,000 worth of food to feed 2,400 individuals (960 children) every single month! This takes an amazing amount of community support and we are hoping That the Coldest Night of the Year (CNOY) fundraising walk can be a fun way for everyone to get involved and make an impact.


One of the most amazing things about Parkland Food Bank is that it is truly an organization for the community, supported by the community. We simply facilitate the good will of those who have hearts for helping their neighbors!


Thank you for your support!
