Ways To Give

Whether you're making a monthly donation, leaving a legacy gift, or organizing a Virtual Food Drive, there are many ways you can support the GVFB.

Monthly Giving

When you join the Full Heart Club, you provide steady, dependable support to meet the growing demand for food in your community and create lasting impact year-round.

Virtual Food Drives

Hosting a Virtual Food Drive is an easy, fun way to raise funds online. Perfect for workplaces, friends, or community groups to support the GVFB.

A Gift in Your Will

By including the GVFB as a beneficiary in your Will, you have the opportunity to leave a lasting and meaningful impact. This also provides charitable tax credits for your estate.

Corporate Giving & Matching Gifts

Make a corporate donation to support the GVFB! We can provide you with impact stories to share with your staff after your donation.

Securities

Donate publicly traded stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and EFTs to avoid capital gain taxes. This is more tax-efficient than selling and donating cash.

Fundraising Events

From signature events to third-party fundraisers, we do it all. Let us know your fundraising event ideas, and we will support your event every step of the way.

Call, Mail or Visit

We accept cash and cheque donations at our Winston Street Head Office Monday to Friday from 9:00am to 3:30pm.

Cheques can be made payable and to the Greater Vancouver Food Bank, 8345 Winston Street, Burnaby BC V5A 2H3

Rosie and her family

When Rosie and her husband were expecting their second child, life took an unexpected turn. Her husband needed knee surgery and couldn’t work. With a newborn and rising grocery prices in Vancouver, they struggled to keep up.

“As hard-working people, it was tough to ask for help. But the GVFB staff were kind, and I realized we’re not alone. Many good people are going through hard times.”

Rosie felt relief at the GVFB’s Vancouver location. She is grateful for the warm welcome, baby formula, fresh produce, and especially the Nutritional Program Packs for her children.

“We really appreciate everyone at the GVFB, from the greeters to those helping with food.”

THANK YOU for supporting families like Rosie’s during these challenging times.

La Boussole in the DTES

Tucked inside the old Main Street police station in the Downtown Eastside, La Boussole has transformed a historic space into a hub of care and connection. Original jail cells now sit alongside thoughtfully organized storage and vibrant community programming.

La Boussole is the only organization in Greater Vancouver offering full French-language support to vulnerable populations. From food and housing to health care, employment, and administrative help, their services meet people where they are.

Each month, they pick up fresh food from the GVFB to fill their beautifully curated hamper bags. Every Wednesday, 80 to 100 of these bags are handed out, along with warm drinks and fresh pastries for unhoused neighbours.

Thanks to this new partnership, La Boussole is ready to reach even more people in need. We’re thrilled to welcome them to the GVFB family of 170 agency partners!
