There are over a 1000 men, women and children in Cornwall who face hunger every day. Their stories are as diverse as the city and three counties served by the Agapè Centre: working families hit hard by the recession, women and children, seniors trying to make ends meet. The one thing they have in common is being part of a food system that desperately needs additional support. The Agapè Centre was created in 1971 with the simple belief that no man, woman or child should go hungry or without the basic necessities of life. Agapè means love and serves all people without the preference to colour, race or religion. In June 1977, it was operating from a garage. With the help of St. John Bosco Parish, Agapè opened its doors at 818 York St. on October 19, 1977. On November, 1989, the Agapè Centre moved to 301-C McConnell Avenue. The mission at the Agapè Centre is to reduce the impact of poverty within the community and since 2001 the Centre has seen staggering increases in the number of the people assisted. An acute need for additional space was needed. The Agapè Centre undertook a capital campaign and purchased the building, Saint Columban’s Parish Centre December 2006, on 40 Fifth Street West, Cornwall which is where we still are.
