Hello,

As we approach the holiday season—a time to come together and cherish moments—I am reminded of the challenges faced by so many in our communities.

One in five Scarborough households struggles to afford enough food, a sobering statistic that underscores the urgent need for action.

At Malvern Family Resource Centre (MFRC), we are actively addressing food insecurity. Each week, our team provides 1,500 meals and snacks in every one of our daily programs, ensuring children, youth, seniors, and newcomers all have access to nutritious food. We also grow 40,000lbs. of produce each year at the Malvern Urban Farm and are in discussions with officials to further expand it.

This holiday season, I am reaching out to invite you to join us in making a difference.

With hope and gratitude

Josh Berman
Executive Director
