The First Bites campaign from the Saskatoon Food Bank & Learning Centre is focused on providing nutritious food for babies and toddlers in the community. Director of Operations and Engagement Deborah Hamp says the initiative is backed by a $50,000 matching sponsorship from Canpotex, meaning every dollar donated is doubled.

With about 40 percent of food bank clients being children, the need is significant. Donations of cash or baby items like purees and infant cereal can be made in person at 202 Avenue C South or online, helping Saskatoon’s youngest residents get a healthy start.
