Join CBC Fredericton and help feed families in your community by supporting a local food bank.

The number of people relying on food banks is higher than ever, and the need is even greater during the holidays.

This year, the Feed a Family fundraising campaign has an ambitious goal: With 3,000 New Brunswick families in need and each meal costing $75, the campaign is aiming to raise $225,000.

No matter how big or small, every donation and act of kindness makes a difference.

Your community needs you.
