Pitching in: Delivering food to low-income seniors around Toronto GlobeBusiness
Adam Zivo, seen here on May, 19, 2020 in Toronto, charges $75 for each basket, but is reconsidering the fee and may drop it altogether.When Adam Zivo’s mother returned to Canada from an overseas trip in March, she went into self-isolation and had to rely on family and friends to deliver food.
That led to the creation of LifeCrates, a non-profit service that delivers food to low-income seniors around Toronto. The organization has teamed up with several community groups that provide the names of those in need. It also works with retailers, wholesalers and manufacturers to get food at the lowest cost possible. Each crate contains enough food to last for a month and LifeCrates has two dietitians who ensure that everything is nutritious.
