About Us - Hours of Operation
About Us
The Campus Food Bank was established in 1996 and is registered as a food bank with the Community Food Sharing Association. Many departments, clubs, societies and other groups hold food drives and fundraisers throughout the year in support of its activities. The Food Bank is staffed by volunteers, most of whom are students.
To utilize the Food Bank, students must provide their MCP number or, in the case of out-of-province students, a student number will suffice.
Hours of Operation
Please note: There is construction going on at Corte Real, the home building of the Food Bank. We do not anticipate any upcoming changes to our hours of operation during the construction period.
Receiving food hampers from us
The Campus Food Bank is open:

- Thursday from 3:30 - 5:30pm and 7:00 - 8:00pm
These hours are only for receiving food hampers from us.
The Food Bank is open year-round, except for a few weeks over the Christmas Break. Dates for that closure are posted in December. We are also closed for most statuatory holidays - these tend to be mainly Monday holidays when there are no classes. We post those closure dates shortly in advance of the day.
