The ND Small Pantry (Nick’s Nook) is a community initiative created to help address food insecurity right here in our neighbourhood. Located at the front of our parking lot, this pantry is a collaborative effort between New Hope Church, United Way British Columbia, Magical Hearts, and our incredible community supporters.
Nick’s Nook operates on a simple, neighbourly principle: take what you need for today, and leave what you can for tomorrow. The pantry is open and accessible 24/7 for anyone who needs support—no judgment, no barriers, and no shame. It is also available around the clock for those who wish to give by donating items.
