SCHC FOOD FIGHT RESOURCES
SCHC Food Fight was meant to be a peer to peer fundraising and food drive to stock the shelves for summer when donations typically plunged. Due to restrictions from Covid-19 pandemic measures this will be an online virtual fundraising event only. For the safety of staff and our community we cannot take food donations and deliveries. We thank you for your understanding and look forward to resuming the Food Drive and Team competitions in 2021.
FAQs
Can SCHC Food Fight deliver a food collection bin?
Yes, we are happy to provide one of our bins for large food drives. A large drive is considered 250 lbs or more of non- perishable food. You also have the option to pick up a bin at our location 629 Markham Road, Unit 2, Scarborough ON M1H 2A4
We aren't sure if we can raise 250 lbs of food. Can we still request a bin?
If you are not sure how much food you will raise, we recommend using banker’s boxes or bags to collect food.
Will SCHC Food Fight pick up the food donations?
Yes, SCHC Food Fight can pick up food donations as long as you have raised 250lbs+ of food.
How do we measure 250lbs of food?
If you want to measure how much food you raised, 250lbs is approximately 12 bankers’ boxes, 25 grocery bags full, or a full Food Fight bin.
If we do not raise 250 lbs, will SCHC Food Fight still pick up the food?
If you collect less that 250lbs+ of food, we advise you to drop off your donation at Scarborough Centre for Healthy Communities. Our office hours are Monday to Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Can we use your logo?
Please contact Debra McGonegal to share details of your campaign and how you would like to use our logo and other promo material.
