The Brockville and Area Food Bank was first registered as a charity in June 1985. It was started as a project of area churches that saw a need to help the increasing number of families in the area who were struggling to provide life’s basic necessities. The first food bank was located at First Presbyterian Church. It moved to its current location in 2009.
First Presbyterian Church continues to support the efforts of the Food Bank through in-kind and financial donations, plus regular collection of plastic grocery bags and egg cartons. Here is the link to the Food Bank’s website for more information: Brockville and Area Food Bank
