519 Community Collective EMERGENCY Hamper Request Form is for folks in emergency need of a 3-4 day food supply.
We only serve Kitchener, Waterloo & Cambridge. We encourage you to explore and utilize other options first, and our team at 519 Community Collective will do our best to fill the gaps, where possible.
Please be advised that at this time, we give out four times per year a 3-4 day supply per address, as we need to stretch our supply as far as we can.
Our hampers are intended for families, singles, seniors who are in an emergency situation. They are to be used when access to food is limited, and you are without any other resources. This is not a monthly grocery service, and should not be used as such. ONLY in absolute emergency situations should this program be used!
Thank you for understanding!
