Our Vision
A Newfoundland and Labrador where every family has access to nutritious food
At NL Eats, we believe that no one in Newfoundland and Labrador should face hunger. Yet, thousands of families in our province struggle to access the food they need every month. That’s why we’ve built programs designed to create lasting change. From providing essential food hampers through our Food Bank, to empowering youth through the Road to Success Program, and fostering innovation and collaboration with our Food Forward Conference, we are tackling food insecurity from every angle.
Until the day every family is free from hunger, we remain steadfast in building strong partnerships, uplifting our communities, and championing meaningful solutions. We believe that ending hunger in Newfoundland and Labrador is a shared responsibility, and everyone has a vital role to play.
Our mission is to ensure that every meal, every program, and every initiative brings hope and stability to families in need. Together, we can create a brighter future for our province
— one where no family goes hungry.
