Help us raise money

In our community, no one should be hungry. When you think of a public library, historically a book-filled space where food was banned, do you imagine a partner in the fight against food insecurity? 1 in 5 people do not have access to affordable, healthy food. Halifax Public Libraries now offers free food literacy programs that build knowledge and skills in areas such as growing, cooking, nutrition and local choices. Runners will support more than 400 food literacy programs and healthy snacks in our community. You will receive personalized fundraising supporting, coaching, group runs and book recommendations, of course!
