Things are so positive at the London Food Bank these days. Our volunteers and staff are gearing up for tariff challenges ahead. And they are falling in love in the process. Here's Jane with two of our folks getting married within 3 weeks of each other. This is so great.

Tonight at 5:30 on Rogers TV London, Glen talks with Joe Gansevles from Hutton House about his dedicated work in developing local forces for our community. Lots of good information. It's all part of the series Path to Food Security. #LdnOnt @londonfoodbank.bsky.social

Though our numbers have doubled in recent years, the majority of our @londonfoodbank.bsky.social clients in 2024 still came less than 4 times a year. It remains an emergency service, used only as required, and supported by a remarkably generous community.

Been fielding media inquiries about how food banks will handle the incoming tariffs. There's just so much going on. But we are working on plans at the London Food Bank, knowing that the days ahead will be uncertain. Thankful for London's generosity. Elbows up. Arms out.

On Volunteer Corner, we talk with Allison DeBlaire, co-founder and volunteer director of 519 Pursuit. The partnership between our two organizations, along with RBC Place and YOU on the Homeless Lunch Initiative, has been nothing short of remarkable.

On Volunteer Corner, here it is, Round #2 of our Saturday morning crew interview. These folks are incredible and they've been at it for years. So much thanks to all of them, not only for their help, but how they lift volunteerism in a collective enterprise. Awesome.

Volunteer Corner. The London Food Bank's Saturday morning volunteer team has been together for years and performed minor miracles for years. They also assist with the student food bank. They are a remarkable team with lots of affection to go around.

Families need homes, so build them. We need productivity, so pay workers well. We need food security, so feed them. Kids need a future, so create it. Community businesses require dedicated customers, so let's shop responsibly. This is what politics is supposed to do instead of dividing us.

As the homeless problem remains persistent across the country, the London Food Bank has stepped up its assistance in the city to support agencies dealing with it. Here's how it breaks down. Londoners have made a significant difference.

Luis operated the greenhouse for two weeks while in Chile visiting his ailing father. He monitored it on camera, adjusted the temperature and lights, and kept the humidity just right - all from 8,850 kilometres away. Now that he's back, everything is ready. Amazing.

Fortunately, Londoners understand this. Despite rising prices, economic uncertainty, high accommodation costs, and numerous challenges, they continue to donate at levels sufficient to meet our demand, as well as those of the other agencies we assist. Thank you for that, London.

πŸ—³οΈ It is Election Day in Ontario!

Last year, 1M+ Ontarians relied on food banksβ€”the highest ever. Poverty isn’t inevitable; it is legislated.

We’re joining Feed Ontario in calling on all parties for real solutions. Today, vote to prioritize people!

Yup, we're still at it 3 years later, working with the local Ukrainian community. All of Canada stands with all of Ukraine. We stand up to tyrants, and we sit down and fellowship with other sovereign people seeking peace. Canada & Ukraine. Love it.

This was from the end of 2024 and the numbers continue to rise. All food banks are collaborating on how to face what is now coming with the tariffs. Please support your food bank wherever you are. Thank you for your ongoing generosity. This future can't be faced without you.

Three years ago today, Russia invaded Ukraine. We stood with the oppressed then. We stand with them now. We're Canadians. It's what we do - stand against the military oppression of a free people and a sovereign land. #LdnOnt

In these times when identifying ourselves as Canadian is important, we must include all those struggling in obscure poverty. They are part of who we are as a country and Canada can only get stronger when we help them achieve self-sufficiency. Surely a good country does that, right?
