Bulk Purchase Subsidy Program

The Bulk Food Purchase Subsidy Program provides a reimbursement for costs incurred by food banks to purchase higher demand non-perishable staples (canned fruit, meat, fish and vegetables, soup, beans, baby food, pasta) or perishable food items (dairy, eggs, protein, fresh produce, frozen products). 

Food Banks Alberta will contribute funds to eligible food banks to increase their purchasing power of food items. This is an annual subsidy to reimburse costs for purchases from the previous calendar year. Food banks can access these application forms through the online database.
