Free Wellness Programs and Activities


At the Cambridge Food Bank, our free wellness programs teach children, youth, and adults how to cook simple, budget-friendly meals, replace high-fat, high-sugar convenience foods, and share healthy dishes with family and friends. Participants explore Canada’s Food Guide and global recipes while learning to shop on a budget, prepare nutritious seasonal produce, and practice mindfulness through self-management and movement programs that support mind, body, and spirit.

Kinship Group​

The Kinship Support Group is for grandparents or other kin families who have assumed the responsibility of raising an immediate family member. The monthly meeting includes dinner, childcare, activities for children and adults, and peer-to-peer support. The program runs September - June.

Child & Youth Programs​

School Support​

Schools are crucial in raising empathetic people regarding issues such as food insecurity, nutrition, activism, and community.
