In this interview, we dive into the heart of the Valley Food Bank’s mission to combat hunger in a small Canadian community in 2025. Monica, a dedicated food bank leader, shares the stark realities of serving a growing need and relying on community donations, and stretching a single $50,000 government grant to feed families, seniors, and the homeless. From navigating rising costs and winter shortages to preparing 400 Christmas boxes, learn how this food bank balances emergency aid with dignity. Discover the challenges of volunteer shortages, societal stigma, and the need for basic life skills education, plus inspiring stories of local farmers and churches stepping up. Join us to see how a community fights food insecurity and how you can help.
