The Clarington East Food Bank

Everyone Deserves Access to Nutritious Food
There are many reasons why people experience food shortages. Often, our neighbours are forced to make the impossible choice between paying rent or buying groceries. Which would you choose?
At the Clarington East Food Bank (CEFB), we are here to help our community through these tough times—because we care. As a non-profit, volunteer-driven organization, we work tirelessly to ensure no one in our community goes hungry.
Our services are free, confidential, and open to anyone in need. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our donors, we distribute fresh and non-perishable food and essential items to residents across Clarington East.

Thank You, Clarington!
We are deeply grateful for the spirit of our community. Your donations allow us to provide vital support to those living with food insecurity, especially as the need continues to grow.
Every Tuesday and Thursday, we welcome new neighbours to the Food Bank. Our guests include individuals and families of all ages—some with young children, some living alone—all facing unique challenges. Together, we are making a real difference.
We are fortunate to have the support of hundreds of individuals and local businesses. Please visit our Community Partners page to see the sponsors who make our mission possible.
Land Acknowledgment
We recognize that we are on the traditional territory of the Anishinaabe People, who cared for this beautiful land long before our arrival. We acknowledge the long history of the First Nations and Métis People in Ontario and show our respect to our neighboring community of the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation.
Nous voulons reconnaître que nous sommes sur le territoire traditionnel du peuple Anishinaabe qui a pris soin de cette belle terre bien avant que le reste d’entre nous n’arrive. Nous souhaitons reconnaître la longue histoire des Premières Nations et des Métis en Ontario et montrer du respect à notre communauté voisine de la Première Nation des Mississaugas de l’Île Scugog.
