Canadian Foodgrains Bank

Canadian Foodgrains Bank

Canadian Foodgrains Bank is a partnership of 15 Canadian church agencies, including Mennonite Central Committee, which together seek a Christian response to hunger. Its mission is to enable Canadians, working through the member church agencies and their respective local partners, to share resources with, support and learn from hungry populations outside Canada in their efforts to achieve food security. "Food security" means that people have access to enough nutritionally balanced food in both the short-term and the long-term that they may live active and healthy lives.

Foodgrains Bank's overall goal is to reduce hunger and its consequences among hunger-affected individuals, households, and communities in developing countries.
