The rising costs of food, housing, fuel, and transportation are placing immense pressure on individuals and families across Canada. Children, single mothers, international students, and seniors are among the hardest hit, with many struggling to afford even the most basic necessity: food. Nearly 25% of Canadians live in food-insecure households, and this number is rising.
Recognizing the urgency of this issue, BAPS Charities organized a food drive in Montreal, QC, and donated more than 3,800 pounds of non-perishable food items to On Rock Community Services on December 15, 2025.
Kayla Reid, Executive Director at On Rock Community Services said, “We are truly grateful for your support over the past few years. Your generosity makes a meaningful impact on the families and individuals we serve in our community.”
BAPS Charities also organized a Canada-wide Food Drive, leading up to and during the Diwali celebrations, bringing communities together in the spirit of service and compassion.
BAPS Charities is committed to serving society and communities in diverse fields such as medical, environmental, community, educational, and humanitarian services.
