With the unstoppable force of lionhearted partners and volunteers, we eradicate hunger and homelessness.

WE ARE DRIVEN BY A DEEP DESIRE TO SEE ALL PEOPLE LIVING WITH HUMAN DIGNITy.

Since 2014, we have been driven by a deep desire to see all people living with human dignity. Our goal at Lionhearts Inc. is to unite people in the community with practical acts of love.

We facilitate the logistics required for lionhearted businesses to safely and efficiently donate surplus food to local agencies who are doing the hard work to support our disenfranchised neighbours.
