Momentum: Financial Empowerment Programs
As November is Financial Literacy Month, we met with Jodie Moffatt, Financial Empowerment Facilitator, to dig deeper into their Financial Empowerment Programs.
COMMUNITY OWNED AND SUPPORTED
The Calgary Food Bank has been a charity partner for 18 years, and to date, more than 80 businesses have supported us with food, funds and supplies, such as diapers, totaling $564,277.
OFFERING SUPPORT BEYOND FOOD
We revamped the process and have now initiated a more client centric, trauma-informed way to guide clients to supports beyond food. Today we have trained Referral & Resource volunteers who call clients that opt for follow-up.
How We Work To Reduce Waste
We sort donations big and small, and separate them into different recycling and reclamation areas, with a goal of less than 10% going to the landfill.
Fall 2022 Comfort Food
The fall report discusses how we feed, lead, and connect through our employees, renovations, volunteers, and partnerships.
