MIDWEST FOOD RESOURCES

A volunteer researched and identified a need in the Battlefords for community nutrition programs. For 2 years this volunteer worked on developing partnerships in the community and researching funding opportunities. As these programs did not fall within the mandate of organizations which existed at that time, in the community, Midwest Food Resource Project Inc. was incorporated in September of 1997 as a non-profit organization. The organization expanded in 1998, offering programs regionally in Lloydminster, Meadow Lake and Turtleford. It is run by a volunteer board of directors. Midwest Food Resource Project Inc. became a charitable organization in the year 2000... Eating well is important, but it's not always easy.
