Why us?
For over 40 years, we’ve been dedicated to increasing access to healthy food in Toronto in a way that goes beyond just providing emergency services. We are proud to be an integral part of the community, offering support, fostering health and togetherness, and challenging inequality.
But the needs of our community have never been greater—and we can’t do this critical work without you.

A gift of any size can help us plan for the future and ensure that we can meet the ever-growing need of our community. Email Lucy at lucy@thestop.org to find out more.
Contribute Food and Supplies
Due to our purchasing relationships with local farmers and vendors, donating money to The Stop is the single most effective way to increase your neighbours’ access to good food.
However, donations of good food and program supplies are always in demand at The Stop. Learn how you can contribute.
Other Ways to Give
We’re always looking for ways to bolster support for our community.
Corporate Engagement
We host corporate volunteer sessions at our Urban Agriculture sites for businesses who are looking to give back to the community. This is a fun and immersive way to learn about food systems, get your hands dirty, and support our work. Learn more.
