The Afri-Can FoodBasket is a community based non-profit organization that has been at the forefront of championing Food Justice and Food Sovereignty for Toronto’s African, Caribbean, Black(ACB) community since 1995.
As we prepares to celebrate our 25th anniversary, we are proud to say that we are still committed to enhancing the nutrition, health, employment and food access needs of the ACB community, in particular those who are economically and socially vulnerable.
In response to the impact COVID-19 is having on members of our community the Afri-Can FoodBasket is proud to launch a food sovereignty initiative that will support members of the African, Caribbean, Black (ACB) community to access fresh produce during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Through this initiative our team is coordinating weekly deliveries of Fresh Fruits and Vegetables at no cost to members of the ACB community who needs support.
If you know someone within the ACB community who needs support accessing fruits and vegetables please let them know about this initiative and encourage them to register at
