Fighting Food Insecurity

Explore our Community Food Ecosystem

Welcome to our Community Food Ecosystem, a comprehensive food asset map made possible through The JustFOOD Action Plan and Dillon Consulting's Million Meals Campaign. The Million Meals initiative, launched in January 2021, set out to provide one million meals to Canadians in need, reaching this milestone by March 2022.

The campaign extended beyond meal provision, aiming to address the root causes of food insecurity and contribute to systemic transformation. Dillon Consulting collaborated with over 250 organizations nationwide, evaluating pro bono consulting applications based on factors like feasibility, impact, geographical diversity, and the potential to address the underlying issues of food insecurity.
