The Ranchlands Food Pantry Hamper Program is here to support neighbours in our community when money is tight, and groceries become hard to afford. If you’re a Ranchlands resident experiencing food insecurity, this program offers practical support in a safe, welcoming, and non-judgement environment.
Our goal is simple: to make sure people in Ranchlands can access food when they need it most. Any information shared with the program is kept strictly confidential and used only to help prepare appropriate food hampers. It is never shared outside of the Ranchlands Community Association.
How to Sign Up for a Food Hamper
Residents can request a food hamper by completing the online registration form on our website. To confirm Ranchlands residency, government-issued ID is required.
Food hamper request forms must be submitted by Monday at 10:00 am.
Hamper pickup and perishables shopping take place on Mondays from 4:30 to 5:30 pm.
Pickup Location:
Ranchlands Community Association
7713 Ranchview Dr NW
Calgary, AB T3G 2B3
Hamper delivery is available for residents who are unable to attend pickup in person.
Donations
We gratefully accept non-perishable food items in original packaging. For safety reasons, opened, expired, or homemade items cannot be accepted.
Unused personal care items such as soap, toilet paper, and deodorant are also welcome.
Donations can be dropped off at the Ranchlands Community Association (7713 Ranchview Dr NW) and placed in the lobby donation bin during office hours.
The RCA also accepts monetary donations and gift cards, which are used to purchase staple items when pantry supplies are running low. One-time donations can be made by cash, cheque, or e-transfer, and monthly donations can be set up through CanadaHelps.
Donations of $20 or more—including cash, gift cards, or food items—are eligible for a tax receipt. For more information, please contact the RCA office.
It is so great to belong to a community where we can look out for one another and continue building connections in meaningful ways.
Thank you to our volunteers, donors, and neighbours for helping ensure that no one in Ranchlands has to face worries about having enough food alone.
