Hope House Guelph

A heartfelt thank you to Alectra Inc. for supporting one of our markets for an entire year! The Guelph Seniors’ Community Food Markets bring a farmers’ market-style experience to eight subsidized housing locations across Guelph, running 96 markets annually. This initiative increases food access for 350 vulnerable seniors by providing fresh produce, pantry staples, hygiene items, and age-specific education and referrals. At Hope House, we believe poverty, food insecurity, inequality, and overall well-being are deeply connected. Through individualized services and programs, we work to break down barriers and challenge the stigmas associated with poverty. Website : www.alectra.com #HopeHouseGuelph #AlectraCARES

Drop them off during our open hours and make a simple, impactful difference! #HopeHouseGuelph #CommunitySupport #Sustainability #EggCartonReuse

FEMININE HYGIENE PRODUCTS NEEDED! It’s that time again—time to ensure everyone in our community has access to the essentials they need. We are currently in need of feminine hygiene products like sanitary pads, tampons, and other hygiene items. If you have any to spare, we’d truly appreciate your donation! Please bring donations to reception during our operating hours. Thank you for helping us support those in need! 💛 See you soon! #HopeHouse #FeminineHygiene #Donate #CommunitySupport #DignityForAll

Oranges are a terrific winter fruit. Oranges offer a great source of vitamin C and fibre. Fruit makes a good snack. Enjoying fruit between meals is a delicious eating moment. Eating regularly (having some food every 3 to 5 hours at least) can be really helpful in managing our blood sugar and our food cravings. The Seniors’ Community Food Markets at Hope House provide oranges at their winter markets. Access to oranges means they can be a regular part of our weekly food return. Oranges can be enjoyed on their own or added to other dishes. See the recipe below to use oranges in a new way. Both the juice and zest of an orange are part of a marinade. Try it out today to enjoy all that oranges have to offer. Recipe https://lnkd.in/gRtz7sKP
