Community Benefit
As the goal of the Knights Table is to alleviate hunger in the Peel Region, our project will allow us to continue aiding those in need on a daily basis. Our project will also allow Knights Table to serve and empower vulnerable members of our community by providing food and access to resources in a safe environment through volunteerism and strategic partnership. Our project will also help improve the lives of those experiencing poverty, hunger and homelessness in Brampton, Mississauga and Caledon, including children and their families and the working poor. It will bring nutritional meals to the needy and offer services to marginalized individuals. Through our core programs and seasonal programs, those in need in the Peel community will continue to receive our services. With this, our project aims to inspire all people to achieve their full potential.
