The Cloverdale Community Kitchen began in 2011 when the City of Surrey and the RCMP approached Pacific Community Church and ask if they would provide meals for the homeless as another organization had closed their kitchen.
The first meals were served from a small kitchen and everyone quickly realized a full size commercial kitchen was needed. Through community support and a grant from the Surrey Homelessness and Housing Society a full size commercial kitchen was completed in 2013.
Currently we serve 15,000 meals a year with the need growing every month. In both 2017 and 2019, the Cloverdale Community Kitchen won the Not-For-Profit of the Year from the Cloverdale Chamber of Commerce.
