Bridges to Hope

Region(s): Avalon

Category(s): Health

Our programming offers help to anyone requiring food aid assistance. It’s not a hand out – it’s a hand up, helping Newfoundland families and individuals move forward in life. Bridges to Hope serves the Northeast Avalon region.
Food Pantry: Clients access food aid assistance once a month and can receive a full food hamper or an emergency hamper.
Community Kitchen: Currently, our kitchen is used daily to make fresh homemade bread for our clients, and we also make soups, stews, and roasted chicken, depending on availability of ingredients. When Bridges to Hope receives funding or requests from organizations, the kitchen is used as a learning classroom that teaches people how to make cost effective meals.
Smart Snack: Smart Snack is currently being launched as Bridges to Hope’s newest program. With over 200 of our monthly clients being school aged children, this program provides children with healthy essential food items that they would otherwise not have access to. Each Smart Snack kit holds 4-5 days’ worth of nutritious snacks that include protein, dairy, fruit and a homemade snack such as a bran muffin or energy bite.
