What does the Jasper Food Bank do?
The mission of the Jasper Food Bank is to help relieve hunger and draw attention to the problems associated with hunger through awareness and community resources.
The Jasper Food Bank is a volunteer-run non-profit association that provides food and basic personal care items to Jasperites in need.
Food bags are handed out once a week, on Thursday evenings between 5:30-6:30. Deliveries can be arranged for those with transportation or mobility challenges.
Who can get food?
All Jasper residents are eligible for food supports.
The Jasper Food Bank is intended to support individuals and families on an emergency or short-term basis.
If anyone is needing additional or ongoing support they will be encouraged to speak privately with our Food Bank manager who can assist in connecting them with additional community support services.

Jasper Food Recovery Program
Visit the Program’s open hours or the Community Fridge to help rescue food from being thrown out. Food may be a day or two past the best before dates. Or, it could be over-stocked items, bruised produce, or even left-over soups and stews from restaurants. Because of this, the quantity, quality, and selection is always varying.
The goal of this program is to reduce community food waste from restaurants, stores, and residents. Donations are appreciated and help keep the program sustainable.
You can find out more information by following the Jasper Food Recovery Facebook page.
