we appreciate your support!

When you donate to our food banks, we can stretch dollars into several pounds of nutritious food for those in need in Highlands East. Your contributions to our Heat Bank Program directly help neighbors across Haliburton County by addressing and preventing hydro and heating emergencies, ensuring everyone stays safe and warm.

With E-Transfer: Please include your name & mailing address in the "notes" section of the e-transfer so we can send you a tax receipt!​

securities

A donation of securities or mutual funds is the most efficient way to give charitably. Since capital gains taxes don't apply, our charity receives the full fair market value when the security is sold, and you get a tax receipt which reflects your larger contribution. This allows you to give more and get more.
Donate Securities

​Donate a vehicle

We have partnered with Donate a Car Canada to accept donations of vehicles. Free towing is provided in most areas across Canada or you can drop off your vehicle to maximize your donation.

When you donate your car, truck, RV, boat or motorcycle to Central Food Network through 
Donate A Car Canada, it will either be recycled or sold at auction (depending on its condition, age and location). Donate a Car Canada will look after all the details to make it easy for us to benefit. After your vehicle donation is complete, you will receive a tax receipt and we will put your gift to good use.

Please click
 here to get started with your vehicle donation.

We gratefully accept donated food items at both of our locations during our open hours as well as at donation bins throughout the community. Both perishable & non-perishable foods are welcome at our locations!
