About this listen
This time of year, there’s a lot of talk about the food bank. Edmonton’s Food Bank was actually the first in Canada, and what started as a temporary answer to hunger has become a massive support system for community members. We sit down with the executive director of Edmonton’s Food Bank, Marjorie Bencz, to talk about how food insecurity has changed and how the organization has grown.
If you’d like to donate to your local food bank as part of CBC’s Make The Season Kind Campaign, you can go to www.cbc.ca/kind/yeg.
