Every week Nourish East End welcomes over 600 individuals, from over 300 households. We are a member of the Daily Bread Food Bank network, one of 207 member agencies across Toronto working to eliminate food insecurity, and to advocate for solutions to end poverty – all while providing food and support to our neighbours.
Many factors contribute to food insecurity. We work to offer everyone who steps through our doors consistent and dignified access to fresh & nutritious food. Our food bank operates market-style so our clients can freely select the food, and/or personal care items that work best for themselves and their families.

Our aging elevator is currently out of service. We will assist those whose mobility issues prevent them from accessing the food bank to shop!
GERRARD STREET EAST
We are located within the East End Food Hub at 1470 Gerrard St E inside the historic Glen Rhodes Church building. We are one block west of Coxwell and are near many transit stops (506 Streetcar and 22 Coxwell bus).
9-11am & 2-4pm
Our market-style food bank opens every Wednesday from 9am to 11am and 2pm to 4pm. Wait times to get into our facility do vary, however our volunteers work diligently to make sure your experience is quick and seamless. On other days of the week, other programs operate in this space.
