The Parker Street Food and Furniture Bank is a registered charity providing services to the Halifax Regional Municipality with a focus on the inner city communities of Halifax and Dartmouth. Their "Reaching into the Community in Service and Love" refers not only to their commitment to serve those in need, but also to the sensitivity and caring they exercise in carrying out that work. In short, their work is the relief of suffering, and they do so by giving some comfort in bleak and unhealthy circumstances. It means lessening the privations of the most helpless and vulnerable in our society - the children - and helping them to grow up with more positive attitudes and a sense of the need and the benefits of sharing. Their services include distribution of essentials - such as food, furniture and household items - educational classes, job preparedness, job assistance, emergency funding, lifestyle seminars and referrals to other agencies where necessary.

The Parker Street Food and Furniture Bank is a registered charity providing services to the Halifax Regional Municipality with a focus on the inner city communities of Halifax and Dartmouth. Their "Reaching into the Community in Service and Love" refers not only to their commitment to serve those in need, but also to the sensitivity and caring they exercise in carrying out that work. In short, their work is the relief of suffering, and they do so by giving some comfort in bleak and unhealthy circumstances. It means lessening the privations of the most helpless and vulnerable in our society - the children - and helping them to grow up with more positive attitudes and a sense of the need and the benefits of sharing. Their services include distribution of essentials - such as food, furniture and household items - educational classes, job preparedness, job assistance, emergency funding, lifestyle seminars and referrals to other agencies where necessary.
