Discover what's next
Thank you for being part of something extraordinary. Your faithful monthly giving has transformed lives, built communities, and created lasting change. Now, we're inviting you to lean into an even broader impact.
At Food for the Hungry Canada, we believe the best way to help a child reach their full potential is by supporting the community around them.
That's why we created Journey Partners—an exciting new monthly giving program that supports long-term change for children, their families and their communities.
Welcome to Journey Partners

- Personal letters and photos exchanged with one child
- Monthly donations to support child sponsorship programs and children in crisis

- The same monthly donations, supporting children through innovative programs
I felt stuck. As a woman with little education, I doubted myself and struggled to lead my community. Through FH's training on leadership and community development, I found my strength. Starting at home, my family became my rock—sharing chores, solving problems peacefully, and cheering me on. My kids now thrive at school, and we're happier than ever. In my community, I've empowered women to step up, taught families to collaborate, and launched savings groups that lift us all. Violence is down, progress is up, and I've got a bold vision for our future.
What Your Monthly Gift Makes Possible
Every month, Journey Partners help families around the world:
Food Security
Agricultural training, seeds, livestock, and irrigation to feed families year-round
Education
School construction, teacher training, and supplies so every child can learn
Clean Water
Water systems, health clinics, and nutrition programs that save lives
Economic Stability
Savings groups, vocational training, and microloans that build futures
What I love about this partnership is that it doesn't feel like "charity", it feels like community. Every time I read a story about a family learning how to grow food to feed their kids so they can grow up strong, or a teacher sparking joy and curiosity in their classrooms to encourage students in their dreams, I see the power of determination, and that determination gives me hope. It reminds me that the future isn't something we wait for, it's something we create together.
Continue Your Journey With Us
Your monthly gift will continue automatically—nothing changes on your end. You're already a Journey Partner; we're just making it official.
Questions You Might Have
Nothing changes! Your monthly donation continues at the same amount, on the same schedule. The only difference is where and how we strategically deploy your generosity.
As of January 31, 2026, we will be closing our partnership with your sponsor child's community. For those communities entering graduation in 2026, your sponsor child and their community are thriving! Many communities have graduated from our program because they've reached sustainable development goals—which is exactly what we work toward. The children whose communities are not entering graduation will continue to be supported by their families, community, and local FH country office staff.
Yes—actually, you'll receive more frequent updates! Journey Partners receive exclusive updates with personal stories from children and families across all our partner communities, plus special invitations to events, webinars, and trips.
Quite the opposite! Your gift now makes a MORE strategic difference. Instead of being locked into one location that may no longer need intensive support, your donation can respond to urgent needs and support communities at the critical early stages of their development journey.
We're transitioning all our monthly giving programs to the Journey Partners model because we've found it's more effective for long-term community development. However, we'd be happy to discuss your giving preferences—please contact us at info@fhcanada.org or 1-800-667-0605.
No action required! You're already a Journey Partner. Your monthly donation will continue seamlessly. We'll send you a welcome package with more details about what to expect.
We completely understand that change can feel uncertain. Please reach out to our team at info@fhcanada.org or call 1-800-667-0605. We're here to listen, answer questions, and make sure you feel confident in how your generosity is being used.
