The Summerland Food Bank

This year (2025) the Summerland Food Bank celebrates 41 years of service to the residents of Summerland.

The Summerland Food Bank serves the nutritional needs of Summerland residents in times of need.

Originally founded by the Summerland United Church Women in 1984, the food bank has been in continuous operation since. 

This year we expect to support approximately 550 residents in 260 households.
