Purolator Tackle Hunger
As part of Purolator’s larger commitment to help alleviate hunger in Canada, the Purolator Tackle Hunger program collects cash and food donations for local food banks in CFL cities across Canada. Developed in partnership with the Canadian Football League and Food Banks Canada, Purolator Tackle Hunger has helped deliver over 2 MILLION pounds of food to local food banks across Canada since 2003.

At one game in every CFL city, Purolator organizes a fan food drive and fundraiser. Fans are encouraged to drop off non-perishable food items or a cash donation to the Purolator employee volunteers stationed at the stadium. In return, fans have the chance to get their picture taken with the Grey Cup.
