At the most basic level, we could not operate and feed hungry people without your help. There are many ways you can support our food bank – everything helps, and we cannot find the words to express how much we appreciate it. We’ll start with this:
Ontario Corporation No.: 1792574 | Registered Charity No.: 81061 7894 RR0001
With our partnerships with wholesale and retail food suppliers, we can purchase $4 worth of food for every $1 you donate.
Mail your cheque or money order to:
Brockville and Area Food Bank
PO Box 522, Station Main
Brockville, ON K6V 5V7
If you wish to give on a regular basis through the year, send your post-dated cheques to the same address or join our PAR program . We issue tax receipts for your total donation at the end of the year.
A donation of securities or mutual funds is the most efficient way to give charitably. Since capital gains taxes don't apply, our charity receives the full fair market value when the security is sold, and you get a tax receipt which reflects your larger contribution. This allows you to give more and get more.
We will be happy to send you an income tax receipt. Please send a second email with your name and mailing address and mention the date and amount of your donation.
If you wish to give on a regular basis through the year, send your post-dated cheques to the same address or join our PAR program. We issue tax receipts for your total donation at the end of the year.
Besides being economical and convenient, using PAR for your gifts to the food bank provides us with a predictable monthly income to help us serve our clients even when you are away. You are giving our Food Bank a dependable flow of contributions, which increases our overall financial stability.

During the spring, summer and fall months, we will gladly accept produce from your personal or community gardens.
There is no maximum or minimum limit on produce donations. With our food distribution network, we help reduce waste of excess produce by making sure it reaches people who are hungry.
We are often asked about third parties holding a fundraiser to benefit our food bank. Thank you for your interest in supporting our operation! Please see our policy on third party fundraisers here:
