FIGHTING FOOD INSECURITY
Year-round, AIM partners with local venues, schools, restaurants, and outreach groups to organize events dedicated to distributing meals and supplies to individuals in need.
Park Pop Ups
AIM employees volunteer their time in local communities by helping with the preparation and distribution of meals at park pop-ups organized by local churches. Our employees find it fulfilling to be part of a community-driven initiative while experiencing the privilege of giving back with respect and dignity.
Family Programs
AIM believes in spreading joy and cheer during the holiday season. To ensure that everyone can celebrate the holidays with a little happiness, our dedicated team of volunteers comes together just before the holidays to assemble and deliver beautiful baskets for underprivileged families. Each basket is worth over $250 and is filled with seasonal meal items, treats, gift cards, and festive decorations. These baskets are designed to help families have less stress and more joy during the holidays.
Supporting
Food Banks
In response to the escalating challenge of food insecurity facing families, AIM has intensified its support for local food banks. With demand skyrocketing, our commitment to making a difference has never been stronger. AIM has significantly increased both monetary contributions and donations of high-demand non-perishable items. We take great pride in our role as a supportive partner to the local food banks that serve our communities.
Special Events
Friendsgiving in 2023
AIM hosted its first Neighborhood Friendsgiving event on Thanksgiving Day, where we extended a warm invitation to underprivileged community members to take part in a festive holiday experience. The event featured not only a holiday meal but also a variety of engaging activities and live music, creating memorable moments of connection and celebration with neighbours.
Breakfast Programs
Nutrition plays a crucial role in a child's development. Every month, dedicated AIM employees wake up early to prepare and serve a hot breakfast for kids at local grade schools. This helps to keep breakfast programs running smoothly throughout the year. Our volunteers enjoy being involved in supporting a program that emphasizes the importance of a healthy breakfast to fuel students for success.
