---

The Cloverdale Community Kitchen (CCK) exists to build a strong and healthy community with a focus on alleviating poverty. Our major area of emphasis is food security for the most vulnerable in our population. Ultimately, our vision is to help Surrey and Langley be a healthy and caring community for everyone. CCK serves Surrey, Langley, and White Rock with the following programs:

MOBILE MEALS: CCK currently delivers approximately 450 warm meals a week to seniors and other individuals and families that cannot cook for themselves. 

FRASER VALLEY REGIONAL FOOD BANK: CCK distributes food to 300-400 food bank clients on a weekly basis, as well as distributes food to recovery houses, community kitchens, and other charitable organizations.

CLOVERDALE CHRISTMAS HAMPER PROGRAM: CCK helps over 600 people with food and toys at Christmas time. 

EMERGENCY WEATHER SHELTER: CCK opens its doors for a 25-bed emergency weather shelter from November through March.

CLOVERDALE COMMUNITY CYCLES: CCK operates a charity bicycle shop to help underhoused and low-income persons who need a bicycle as their primary mode of transportation. Here they can either buy a bicycle or get one fixed by donation. 

COVID FOOD HAMPERS: CCK delivers food hampers to marginalized persons affected by COVID-19. This program is for families or individuals who have tested positive for COVID-19 or are in mandatory quarantine without family support to help supply them with food. 

CLOTHING CUPBOARD: CCK provides clothes to those in need or those trying to get back into the workforce.

A few years ago Newmac Animal Feed was contacted by the Cloverdale Christmas Hamper Program looking for donations to load into hampers for people with pets. The hamper program is just one of the many outreach programs undertaken by the Cloverdale Community Kitchen and was our introduction into the great charitable work that they do. We choose the Cloverdale Community Kitchen as our charity because they are local, less than 4 blocks from our store, and they help those in need everyday.
