Last fall, we surveyed our participants on the impact the Carrefour has had on their lives and nutrition in 2023; here are a few results and highlights:
- 93% of those surveyed said they felt a sense of belonging to a community at the Carrefour solidaire CCA;
- 95% of those surveyed said that Carrefour solidaire CCA was an important source of healthy food;
- Participation in Bols du quartier community meals increased by 156% over the year, with more than 10,129 meals served;
- The “Eating Well in Centre-Sud” kits took off: 244 kits were distributed by community and health system workers, reaching 485 neighbourhood residents living with food insecurity and unaware of available community services;
- Over 327 kg of fresh fruit and vegetables were harvested from our collective gardens and public garden.
