Donations:
We recommend that you avoid our Client hours, as there are often lineups, and that you donate at other times. At this time we do not have fixed donation hours as donor schedules are so variable. We simply match up a volunteer with a donor to find a suitable time for both. See the Clients page for hours, and the Donations page for more details about giving.
Location:
The Campus Food Bank is located in the basement of the Global Learning Centre (formerly Corte Real), Burton's Pond Apartments, on Memorial University's St. John's Campus. We are in room CA1000, next to the elevator. We are building 40B on this campus map.
