About Anti-Hunger Coalition Timmins

Anti-Hunger Coalition Timmins (ACT) is local charity that works with community partners to provide programs that make fresh, healthy, affordable food more accessible for everyone in Timmins!

With the help of community partners and volunteers, we:

1. Break down the economic, transportation, and knowledge barriers to eating well with the Good Food Box program.

2. Provide land for community members to grow fresh produce for themselves and for emergency food services through the Community Gardens program.

3. Bring community members together to cook, learn new kitchen skills, and prepare take-home meals with our Collective Cooking program.

These programs and services are made possible because of people like you! Without ACT, the gaps preventing people from accessing good, nutritious food would be much wider throughout our city.

On February 22, let's work together for a food secure community — one where everyone has the tools and resources to access good food!
