SHARE Food Bank

Trinity United is proud to host the SHARE Food Bank at our location, providing direct food support to supplement the diets of hundreds of individuals and families each week in the Tri-Cities. We believe people should have access to healthy and nutritious food where they live and in a dignified manner.

We are unable to receive food bank donations at the church. Please donate any food or make donations directly to SHARE, as the food and money will directly benefit those in our community who rely on the Food Bank.

The best place to drop off is to the Food Bank in Port Moody. They bring their food to us for distribution every Wednesday. Because of COVID, they are pre-packaging all the groceries, and our volunteers are not able to be at the church to receive donations. Here is the location and hours of operation, and further contact information. Thank you for your generosity!

Food Bank Distribution: Pre-packed hamper bags will be distributed on Wednesdays as follows:

• Clients whose last names start with a letter between “A” to “M” are asked to attend the distribution between 10am-11:30am Wednesday

• Clients whose last names start with a letter between “N” to “Z” are asked to attend the distribution between 11:30am-1:30pm Wednesday Everyone who needs help will be served.

There is no advantage in attending early or “lining up”. We are trying to limit the number of people on site at any given time, and to make the process as fast and efficient as possible.

Volunteering:

We are not taking new volunteers at this time. In order to maintain social distancing we need to limit the number of people we can have on our sites at one time. Thank you for your offers to help. We appreciate your kind offer and will reach out to the community if our situation changes.
