Give Calgary Room to Grow
Muslim Food Bank Canada is already making a difference in Calgary, but as demand increases, our current space is no longer enough to keep up with our growing operations.
Supporting 350+ families every month with essential food packages, emergency relief, and basic groceries.
Providing counselling, caseworker support, youth initiatives, senior care, and vital community services.
Operating out of a tight 1,250 sq. ft. facility that has officially reached maximum daily capacity.
Securing a new 2,500 sq. ft. location to double our operational capacity and reach more families.

Our 1,250 sq. ft. space has helped us build a growing community of support—but today, the demand is greater than the space can accommodate.

We've Outgrown Our Space
Our current 1,250 sq. ft. facility has helped us serve the Calgary community—but we're reaching its limits. As more families seek food support and more people benefit from ASPIRE programs, operating within a small space creates growing challenges.
Food and supplies require more organized storage as distribution needs increase.
Volunteers need adequate room to prepare and organize hampers efficiently.
Existing ASPIRE and community programs need more room as participation grows.
A small facility makes it harder to accommodate a larger influx of families and community members.
We don't want our space to become a limit on our impact.
More Space Means Reaching More People
The new location isn't about having a bigger building. It's about having greater capacity to serve. Moving from 1,250 sq. ft. to 2,500 sq. ft. will give MFBCS Calgary the room to expand the programs and services that are already benefiting the community.
More room to prepare and distribute hampers as demand grows.
Greater capacity for counselling and caseworker support.
More opportunities for activities, workshops and community engagement.
More room for programs, gatherings and social connection.
A better environment for the people who make our work possible.
The goal isn't simply to move into a bigger space. The goal is to make room for more people.
