TOY DRIVE
In 2004, Morning Live started a toy drive with hopes to help members of our community bring a smile to their children’s faces on Christmas morning. Over the years the toy drive has gotten bigger and better; extending into Niagara in 2018, introducing ways for viewers to donate toys online in 2019, and in 2020 we began a partnership to collect cash donations online. With the help of our partners we collected a record number of toys and donations in 2023, providing for over 1,500 families in Hamilton alone.
Please bring your toy donation to race kit pick up at the Running Room
Our Mission: Rescuing Food. Impacting Lives. Our Vision: For everyone to have access to healthy food.
Rescue
Since our inception in 1995, Food for Life has rescued over 26 million pounds of food by collecting surplus perishable food (fruit and vegetables, dairy, meat and prepared foods) from both retail and wholesale food suppliers and grocery stores. We are the largest food rescue organization in Halton and Hamilton.
Distribute
Food for Life holds a unique niche among Canadian food relief charities in that we focus on redistributing fresh, nutritious food. Our clients tell us that they are often not able to afford fresh food and that having access to this healthy food allows them to focus on obtaining other life essentials as they work towards no longer relying on our services.
Sustainable
By diverting over 4.9 million pounds of good food last year, Food for Life was able to reduce the equivalent of 7 million kilograms of greenhouse gases.
