La Cantine à domicile: a milder winter, thanks to you

Winter can be particularly trying for seniors. The cold, icy sidewalks and loss of mobility sometimes make grocery shopping or cooking almost impossible. For Yvette, 78 years oldfor Yvette, a former school bus driver, going out in winter is no longer an option.

Thanks to La Cantine à domicile's social pricing, she receives frozen meals directly at home, paying only 25% or 50% of meal priceaffordable.

"I don't have a penny, which helps me a lot... and I hate cooking. Plus, I don't go out in winter, I don't have a car."

According to the latest Quebec Food Banks Hunger Countmore than 20% of Quebec food assistance recipients are aged 65 and over - and the proportion is rising. But for Yvette, it's not a statistic. It's a question of dignity.

"When my daughter and granddaughter come over and I can put something on the table... they're happy to see my fridge full."

After several months of interruption, the social tariff is now relaunched and welcoming new eligible people. This program exists solely thanks to people like you, and receives no government subsidy.

"It takes a lot of energy to prepare meals, and I'm very grateful to be able to receive them already prepared. I encourage 100% to support La Cantine à domicile. The food is very good, I really appreciate it."
