The Sault College Students’ Union food bank is hoping to continue building partnerships in the community to help meet the growing challenges of food insecurity for post-secondary students
Volunteers at the Sault College Students’ Union food bank are working hard to keep up with the rising demand of students who are at risk of not meeting the appropriate nutritional requirements.
“Most of our items are nearly out of stock within the first half hour,” she says. “It’s a growing need in this community, especially when there’s students coming with their children and families.”By providing their student number from the college, students can access the food bank once a week on Wednesdays and Fridays between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.
Jessica Dannrath, a social service worker who specializes in Indigenous studies at the college, has been volunteering her time at the food bank and helping Clement in a variety of capacities.“Great brains need great fuel, and great fuel comes from good food,” she says. “When you’re trying to work three jobs, volunteer, do a placement, and do your clinical practice, you need fuel inside of you to be able to complete those.
