Did you know that the DONATION of FOOD Act removes liability from food donations?
If you are a local business with food to donate, please contact the office @ 905-274-9309. We have many local partners who supply excess food on a weekly basis - it helps many people. We are happy to take close to code (near the best before date) and perishable products too.
If you have a large amount to drop off please contact us to arrange a time for the delivery.
Donation Drop Off
You can drop donations off at The Compass at 310 Lakeshore Road West. We are just west of Mississauga Road and Lakeshore. You are welcome to drive into the back parking lot to unload. Just place your donation on the shelf by the back door, ring the doorbell and depart to maintain social distancing. One of our volunteers will be happy to bring it in once you depart.
Drop off hours:
Monday 12 am - 8 pm
Wednesday 9 am - 5 pm
Friday 9 am - 5 pm
Thank you!
