Our Commitment to Financial Transparency

At the Clarington East Food Bank, we are committed to the responsible management of every dollar entrusted to us. We ensure that all funds are used efficiently to support our mission of reducing food insecurity in our community.

Our Financial Practices

We want our supporters to have full confidence in how their donations are handled. To ensure the highest level of integrity, the CEFB:

• Does NOT use professional fundraisers.

• Does NOT solicit donations by phone or door-to-door.

• Does NOT sell or trade your personal information.

• Does NOT hold donor funds in long-term investments; your gifts are put to work immediately for our neighbors.
