Project Fridge WPG, is a youth-led mutual aid initiative with the goal of providing a community fridge for the city of Winnipeg. As a collective, we understand the importance of food security in relation to mental health and overall well-being, thus fuelling our belief in the benefits of this project. With the theme of allyship in mind, we believe that a community fridge is not only beneficial, but sustainable, with the support of local community members. We aim to keep the fridge stocked for anyone to use with the mantra of “take what you need, and leave what you don’t” to ensure that anyone can benefit from the community fridge.
Note: this project is no longer active and is / was not affiliated with other community fridge projects in Winnipeg.
