The Ottawa Food Bank, like most food banks in Canada, is funded almost entirely by the community and for the community. We get no federal or provincial funding, and we get less than 2% from the municipal government. I mentioned before that we are a $25-million organization, so that should give you a sense of the amount of support we rely on from the community. Clearly, the community deeply cares about its members.
