As with previous years, we are joining with other Canadian city subs setting up donation drives for local food banks. **Hamilton Food Share**[1] is the city’s Emergency Food shipping and receiving hub, and Emergency Food Systems Coordinator for the network of agencies it supports, raising food and funds for emergency food programs including food banks and hot meal programs in neighbourhoods across every corner of the city.

Each **$1 donated will provide $5 in food** to feed the growing number of people in need of groceries as costs rise. But even better, this year **Reddit has agreed to match our donations up to $20,000 through their Community Funds Program!** That means every dollar you donate will help bring $10 of food to food banks across the city.

Hamilton Food Share helps get the food to the 22 local hunger relief programs (Food Banks, Emergency Food Banks and Meal Programs)[2] who help feed over 17,600 people each month.
