Today’s donation to our food pantry comes from Christ Church Cathedral School, who mustered an impressive assortment of canned and dry goods for World Food Day. Thank you to all the kids, parents, and staff who helped! #yyj #volunteer #svdp

Today we received a welcome donation of dry and canned goods from Danny Harris. He and his friends banded together to assemble a variety of items, including pasta, canned veggies, non-dairy milk, and even some hygiene items. Thank you Danny! #yyj #ssvp

Madalena was able to collect 4 times her weight in food donations for our SCO as part of a project for the 5th Garry Oak Scout group. The food will be distributed from our downtown Victoria food pantry. We love to see youth engaged in community service! #yyj #volunteering #ssvp

Soap For Hope Canada

Soap for Hope Canada provides access to hygiene products and linens for vulnerable people by repurposing gently used items that would otherwise end up in the landfill.


Today we’re shining some light on Masithuthu Garden, a project run by St. Joseph’s School and Parish. Together, the community has been growing food for community initiatives that feed vulnerable people, including our Social Concern Office. #gardening #yyj #nonprofit #ssvp
