North York Harvest Food Bank Employee Directory

Non-profit OrganizationsOntario, Canada51-200 Employees

As the primary food bank for northern Toronto, North York Harvest strives to provide dignified food assistance while building strong neighbourhood networks. Each year, we deliver 2 million pounds of critical food support to local partners: neighbourhood food banks, homeless shelters, programs for new parents, and community kitchens. We envision communities where all members can meet their food needs. 

Over the past thirty years, we’ve had a wide range of visitors. Seniors, single mothers, people with disabilities, newcomers to Canada, and homeless youth. People living on Ontario Works, survivors of domestic violence, and the newly unemployed. 39 per cent of our clients are children and youth. Everyone who comes through our door wants to improve their lives, and the ability to access enough healthy food is essential to this. 

Alongside the immediate food support we provide, North York Harvest is fostering longer-term food solutions. These include our development of educational workshops, community gardens, and engaged communities and food networks across northern Toronto. 

Our Service Area

North York Harvest's catchment spans west to east from Highway 27 to Victoria Park Ave, and north to south from Steeles Ave to St. Clair Ave/Eglinton Ave. The catchment represents just over one third of the geographic area of Toronto, and it includes nearly half of the priority neighbourhoods as designated by the City of Toronto.
