Here's how you can take part in CBC London's Sounds of the Season this year
CBC
Sounds of the Season is our annual holiday fundraiser in support of the London Food Bank. Our goal is to raise money, donations and awareness for those facing food insecurity in London.
According to Feed Ontario's 2022 Hunger Report, 587,103 people accessed food banks in Ontario between April 1, 2021 and March 31, 2022, visiting more than 4.3 million times. Ontario Food banks also saw a 47 per cent increase in number of visits over the last three years.
Throughout this month-long campaign, we take time to tell the stories of those in need in our community and highlight the people and organizations working to help those impacted by food insecurity.
Tune in to CBC London's on-air programs and digital sites during December to learn about food insecurity in London and how you can help make the season kind for our neighbours experiencing hunger.
In 2021, you helped us raise over $65,000. Thank you for your generous support of CBC Sounds of the Season!
Join us this year and help support those experiencing hunger in our community. Donate to the London Food Bank here.
