August Donation Drive in Support of Local Food Banks
Published on: August 1, 2025We are very proud to announce a month-long fundraising campaign taking place from August 1st to 31st across all 17 fuel centres, 10 liquor stores, and the Keating food centre.
During this time, customers will have the opportunity to add a donation to their purchases, helping support those in need throughout our community. In a strong show of support, Peninsula Co-op will match all customer donations, up to $25,000 total – maximizing the impact of every dollar contributed.
“Our members care deeply about their communities, and this campaign is an easy way for everyone to lend a hand,” said Brandi Natarelli, Community Relations Manager at Peninsula Co-op. “Together, we can help ensure local food banks have the resources they need to support families in time for the back-to-school season.”
Funds raised will be shared among six local Food Banks, helping to address food insecurity and provide essential support to families and individuals in our communities.
“When school is out for the summer, children lose access to regular meals, and the need at the food bank only grows. We work hard to keep up with this growth in need, but we can’t do it alone. We are immensely grateful for businesses like Peninsula Co‑op that step up to help.”
