Feed the People Kingston

Everybody Eats

Feed the People is a volunteer-run meal program in Kingston. Every week we bring hot food to unhoused neighbours at Belle Park. People are hungry now, so we feed them now.

We're urgently looking for volunteers

The numbers we're seeing in Kingston's unhoused community keep climbing, and we need more hands to keep up. If you can cook, drive, serve, or lead a day, there's a spot for you.

What's going on

Kingston is under a declared food insecurity state of emergency. More people are showing up hungry than there are places set up to feed them. There's no kitchen at the park, so every meal that reaches Belle Park is prepared off-site and carried in, usually by a volunteer with a full pot and an hour to spare.

What we do

We cook and we hand out food at Belle Park. A busy service means feeding well over a hundred people, all of it prepared off-site and carried to where people already are.

  • A volunteer in a Batman t-shirt stirs a large pan of chili inside the tent
  • Four community members pose together with a custom motorbike, one wearing a red clown nose
  • A big group of volunteers gathered around a buffet table loaded with sandwiches, bread and cake inside the Belle Park tent
  • Two large stockpots filled with raw chicken and chopped vegetables, ready to become soup

No intake forms, no questions about whether you've earned it. If you live in Belle Park and you're hungry, there's a plate. That's solidarity, and we mean it.

Three ways to pitch in

  • Cook or carry

    Make a big-batch meal, or lend a hand moving food and setting up at the park.

  • Give

    We run entirely on donations. Every dollar turns into food.

  • Spread the word

    Talk to your neighbours, show up, bring somebody with you next time.
