Dartmouth North Community Food Centre is a project of Dartmouth Family Centre. The Dartmouth Family Centre is located in North Dartmouth, an under-served and high-needs area with a dearth of community gathering spaces. The area is home to significant senior and immigrant populations: 13.5% of the population is aged 65, and many live alone and on a fixed income; 31% of households are single-parent families; and immigrants make up 6.4% of the population, a number that is expected to grow in coming years. Launched in the fall of 2015, Dartmouth North Community Food Centre expands on the existing array of programs to provide a number of new entry points for families with young children, while expanding food access and skill-building opportunities for other community members. Programming includes community action programs, community meals, an affordable produce market, and community kitchens and gardens

What is the Dump and Run?
The Halifax Dump and Run is Halifax's largest community garage sale! Our goal is to divert waste from local landfills by collecting items people no longer have use for and selling them (discounted) at a gymnasium-sized indoor yard sale in order to raise money for charitable organizations. Last year over $13,000 was raised for charities throughout Nova Scotia.
