On March 6th, we had the incredible honor of hosting Minister Nixon of the Alberta Government at our facility where he made his announcement about the 2025 budget. Through Budget 2025, Alberta's Government would invest $5 million to help put food on tables across the province.

"The self-empowering model used by the Community Kitchen Program of Calgary is a great example of how to do exactly that. They help individuals and families eat healthier at a lower cost in the long-term by teaching them how to stretch their food budget further, lower their grocery bills and prepare cost-effective, nutritious meals. This emphasis on practical skills helps individuals and families gain more control over their food security in the long-term by teaching them how to create and maintain life-long healthy habits so they can feed themselves and their families."

His speech was followed by Shawna Bissell, Executive Director of Food Banks Alberta and Sundae Nordin, our CEO.

My children so look forward to getting the Good Food Box – always full of surprises. I’m a single parent of two growing children, thank you for all your support.

We are seniors who receive AB benefits. We are so blessed with the food we receive with the Spinz-A-Round program. We love a good variety of things to help us cook and eat much more healthy.

I had a great time during Souper Stars. Me and the rest of the class hope you can come back and see us next year. The best part about was you showing me that eating healthy is a big part of our lives."
