Every dollar donated to the Calgary Food Bank provides $9.84 worth of social value, according to an analysis conducted by Dr. Lucy Harry, Head of Research at the Calgary Food Bank. The analysis identifies six secondary benefits experienced by clients accessing the Calgary Food Bank’s Emergency Food Hamper program that also have societal economic benefits including:

  • Access to nutritious food
  • Improved mental health
  • Improved financial situation
  • Increased social benefits
  • Improved quality of life
  • Improved life circumstances

*A Social Return on Investment (SROI) Analysis is a way to show the wider benefits of a social program. In this case, it identifies, measures and assigns a dollar value to the secondary impacts of
