For the fourth consecutive year, TravelBrands has announced a CAD $10,000 commitment to Food Banks Canada.
Given the current unprecedented financial challenges faced by many Canadians, the company is actively engaging its employees in a food and fundraising drive alongside its monetary contribution.
“We stand behind the impactful work of Food Banks Canada in supporting Canadians facing food insecurity. Their commitment to ensuring that those in need have access to meals is commendable,” said Nathalie Tanious, President & CEO of TravelBrands. “As we navigate this season, it is crucial that we unite to alleviate the weight on individuals and families most affected. We are confident that our joint effort will make a difference for those relying on additional support this year.”
According to Food Banks Canada, food bank usage "rose to its highest levels this year across Canada, with almost two million visits in one month alone."
Claudia Galella, Director of Corporate Development and Partnerships at Food Banks Canada, said, “Food banks in every region of Canada are stretched to their limits with this rising demand, which is expected to remain high as more and more people count on food banks to help them cope with rising costs. Due to this heightened need, we are very grateful for our partnership with TravelBrands. This donation comes at an important time. Thank you, TravelBrands for your support and for helping us work towards our mission of relieving hunger today and preventing hunger tomorrow."
