Become a Partner

The OAFB has a strong group of core supporters who provide food, financial and other supports to ensure we are able to meet our aims. They include corporate partners, food donors, and like-minded organizations and caring people with a vested interest in ending hunger in Ontario. Partners giving over $10,000 per year are recognized as members of the OAFB's Orange Circle of donors.

Our corporate partners provide us with the opportunity to reach people throughout their lives, and to engage wider audiences in our work to end hunger. When a company or organization grants, sponsors or donates toward the OAFB's mission, campaigns or programs, they have the opportunity to make a positive impact while involving employees and consumers in helping Ontario's food banks and the 320,000 people forced to turn to them each month in over 100 communities in our network.

Today Ontarians believe it is very important for companies to be socially responsible. Consumers strongly support food banks and companies that support them.

The OAFB welcomes the opportunity to develop new partnerships with Ontario based companies, agri-producers, and their associations. If you would like to partner with the OAFB and our members, please contact the home office at 414-656-4100 or toll free at 1-866-220-4022.
