Raising food, funds and awareness for food insecurity in our communities
Valley First and Enderby & District is dedicated to combating food insecurity through various initiatives, from regular fundraising to partnerships and community programs.
Thanks to the unwavering support of our valued members, community partners, and passionate team members, since its inception in 2010, Feed the Valley, has raised $3,199,105 and collected 108,992 pounds of food for our 10 food bank partners as of 2025.
Hunger touches lives in every corner of our community. Help today by supporting Feed the Valley. Drop off non-perishable food or make a donation at any Valley First or Enderby & District Financial branch. Donate online with our community partner Food Banks BC.
All food and funds that are donated to Feed the Valley, stay in the community that they are collected in.
Let’s make a meaningful difference, because together, we can do more than fill empty shelves. We can help our community flourish.
Where does the money I donate go?
100% of your donation goes directly to the local food bank you choose. That means your contribution stays right in your community, helping your neighbors and strengthening local support systems. Feed the Valley is designed to make a visible, local impact.
Can I donate to more than one food bank?
Absolutely! Since you get to choose which food bank receives your donation, you're welcome to support multiple food banks. It’s a great way to extend your generosity across different communities.
Can I donate on a regular basis?
Yes, you can set up a pre-authorized donation to the food bank of your choice, in any amount and frequency that suits you. For example, if you'd like to contribute $20 every other Friday, just let us know. We’ll handle the rest, so your giving is effortless and consistent.
What if I don't bank with Valley First, can I still donate?
Definitely! You don’t need to be a Valley First member to support Feed the Valley. You can make a cash donation at any Valley First or Enderby & District Financial branch, or donate online through our community partner, Food Banks BC.
How do I get a tax receipt?
If you donate online, you’ll receive your charitable tax receipt instantly from Food Banks BC. We’ve covered all administrative fees, so 100% of your donation goes directly to your chosen food bank. For cash donations of $20 or more made at a Valley First branch, you’ll receive a tax receipt from the selected food bank twice a year. If you’ve set up pre-authorized donations, you’ll receive a consolidated receipt at year-end.
What does “Greatest Need Food Bank” mean on the donation page?
This option is for donors who want to support Feed the Valley but don’t have a specific food bank in mind. Every quarter, Food Banks BC identifies which food banks received the fewest donations. We then distribute the greatest need funds equitably to help ensure all communities benefit from the program.
Why was Feed the Valley set up?
Feed the Valley was created to address food insecurity in our communities and ensure that no one goes without the nourishment they need to flourish.
