Our Services and Programs

The Central Food Network (CFN) is a registered charity formed on the premise that when we work together, we can do more to help people. We are constantly working collaboratively and creatively to reach out to food sources and share with others that need it. We are also working tirelessly on new programming that assists people above and beyond food.
