March 4 - Join Burnaby Food First at the Rally to Reduce Poverty in BC



This Saturday, come meet us @ noon at Library Square (350 W. Georgia) and raise your voice: call out for a strategy to end poverty in the province.

What does poverty mean to Burnaby Food First?

  • Students and employees cannot afford to eat 3 times a day
  • Invisible hunger: malnutrition results from a lack of affordable nutritious food
  • Families cannot afford to eat a variety of foods
  • People on fixed incomes may not be able to fit nutritious meals into their budget
  • More and more people do not have access to land, & cannot grow food to supplement their diet
  • Local farmers struggle to put food on our table

 

Raise your voice for empty stomachs! Come find Burnaby Food First at the rally:
