Feed the Valley is an innovative community partnership aimed at tackling hunger in the Okanagan, Similkameen and Thompson valleys.

 

Designed to raise food, funds and awareness for local food banks, Feed the Valley was developed as a corporate citizenship program at Valley First. Since its official launch during national hunger awareness month in March 2010, details about the Feed the Valley initiative have quickly spread and the program now includes other partners committed to eliminating hunger in the region.

 

Feed the Valley encourages community members to donate non-perishable food items or make cash donations to their local food bank. All donations are tax-deductible and can be made as one-time donations at any Valley First branch, through regular, pre-authorized payments or through our easy and secure online credit card payment service ~ DONATE NOW!

You can expect to see Feed the Valley in many communities and at events in the region. Today the program operates in partnership with local food banks in Princeton, Oliver, Keremeos, Penticton, Peachland, Kelowna, West Kelowna, Vernon, Lumby, Armstrong and Kamloops. In time, we hope to see the program grow even more and we encourage everyone to get involved.

 

To find out more, please explore our website or visit any Valley First branch. Feed the Valley will give you plenty of “food for thought.”
