This is the 30th anniversary of our annual High Holidays food drive. Since our first food drive in 1995, Temple Shalom has donated nearly 18,000 pounds of food and over $60,000 to the Food Bank of Waterloo Region. We have provided more than 170,000 meals for our community over the years. Last year alone, with the help of one of our Temple families who matched the contributions of Temple members, we donated nearly $10,000 to the Food Bank, providing 20,000 meals for the many households struggling to put food on the table.

Sadly, however, the need for food only keeps rising. A 2024 report indicated that over 1 in 8 families in Waterloo region were using the food bank. Many of these families were using the Food Bank for the first time.

We can help those suffering from food insecurity by donating generously to the
Waterloo Region Food Bank. Help us make this year’s fast a feast for those whose daily fast is neither symbolic nor voluntary. Please click on the link below to make your donation, or leave money or a cheque in the donation box that will be at the Temple during the High Holidays. Like last year, this year donations will be matched – making your donation go twice as far!

Donate now

Please note that when asked whether you want to “donate as an organization” or “donate anonymously”, you should choose “donate anonymously”. This ensures that the receipt for taxes goes directly to you, the donor.
