The Central Okanagan Community Food Bank is dedicated to providing much needed food and support to those living in Kelowna and West Kelowna.

Many families struggle to make ends meet and children suffer the most. Thirty-three per cent of our clients are children under the age of 15.

The Central Okanagan Food Bank is a member of Food Banks Canada, Food Banks BC, the Kelowna Chamber of Commerce and the Greater Westside Board of Trade. They are an incorporated society, registered charity and are governed by an elected Board of Directors.
