There is an affordability crisis in Canada, and food insecurity rates are higher than
ever before.
In Canada, an affordability crisis has led to unprecedented levels of food insecurity, with 53% of Canadians concerned about feeding their families with 8.7 million people face food insecurity. Students are going to school hungry and families are making impossible choices.
This has also hit social service organizations. Rising food prices, limited staff time and stretched budgets make it tough to kept clients well-fed.
We are a registered charity dedicated to nourishing communities with the universal comfort food. Whether its fuelling students, giving a Hug in a Bowl to a stranger, or providing ready-to-eat soups to frontline agencies, we are working to alleviate the stress of not having enough good food.
Soup Sisters operates and partners with organizations from coast to coast to coast, which are the lands of First Nations, Inuit, and Metis who have been and continue to be in a reciprocal relationship with the lands, waters, and all beings.
The national office of Soup Sisters is in Calgary on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy and all the people who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta.
Soup Sisters is committed to providing a nurturing and caring environment for all of our diverse populations. One that is conducive to demonstrating respect for, cultural diversity, with the objective of consistently providing the message “We see, you we care,” through our hugs in a bowl. We are of the inherent belief that soup is the universal comfort food and everyone, regardless of their circumstance, deserves quality and nutritional food.
