The Food Sharing Project

The Food Sharing Project (FSP) is a registered charity that has been providing nourishment for students to improve their readiness to learn since 1982. As a partner in the Ontario Student Nutrition Program, FSP typically provides six tons of food every week of the school year to 88 elementary, secondary and alternative education sites across Kingston, Frontenac, and Lennox & Addington. Volunteers in schools provide nutritious meal and hearty snack programs that are accessible to any student, regardless of need, in a stigma-free and caring environment. Educators and research tells us that students who eat nutritious food at school are more engaged in their learning, can focus better on tasks and have more positive social interactions.
