About this service
Several of the Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) buildings in southwest Scarborough are located in a food desert. There are no grocery stores within easy reach, nor are there any food-banks in the immediate area. So even shopping for basic foodstuffs is a major challenge for tenants who are already living in poverty. This lack of access to food becomes even worse towards the end of the month when many tenants run out of money.
In addition to the daily and weekly meals, MIND offers free community meals several times a year for up to 150 tenants, usually around major Canadian holidays like Christmas, Canada Day, etc. and these are fully accessible to everyone in the buildings.
