Why does Seva Food Pantry Exist?

Food insecurity is on the rise due the current high cost of living.

Emergency food support systems are well established but culturally preferred food options are often not readily available and or there are unique barriers to access these community supports.

What does Seva Food Pantry do?

Archway’s Multicultural Department, in collaboration with the Food Bank, aims to create access to culturally preferred food within Abbotsford’s South Asian and multi-ethnic groups.

Seva Food Program is currently providing 240 households with culturally preferred food hampers once a month. 

With the support of the community, the program is able to ensure South Asian, halal and Ukrainian food hampers are available.

How Can I help?

You can help ensure our neighbours have access to the food they need.

$21.90 delivers culturally appropriate food for 1 person

$75 delivers culturally appropriate food for a household

By providing equitable access to nutritious and culturally appropriate food for families experiencing or at risk of food insecurity in Abbotsford we strengthen our community.
