Amid COVID-19 concerns, we will be CLOSED this coming Monday, March 16th to prepare our strategy going forward. We want to ensure that we enact measures that limit the spread of COVID-19 so that folks who are vulnerable will not contract this illness. Watch for further updates!

This is an excellent description of what food insecurity looks like for many students! International/graduate students face even higher tuition and fees. This may be part of why they represent a larger proportion of our visitors.
Nearly 2 in 5 post-secondary students experience food insecurity. Thank you to Naja & Hansel for sharing your stories in this powerful video-let's elevate this issue this election season & beyond-it's not too late to talk to your candidates! https://t.co/cOYt4i4MOV

In Canada, 1 in 6 children don't have enough to eat, affecting their ability to learn. A national school food program would ensure that no child learns on an empty stomach. Let’s get talking and #eatthinkvote! @C4HSchoolFood #cdnpoli
