Surrey food bank finds a steadfast partner in Gagan food international

Last month, the Surrey Food Bank received such a gesture of generosity from Paul Arora, CEO of Gagan Foods International Ltd, whose support will directly impact thousands of families across Surrey and North Delta.

For the food bank, which welcomes over a thousand families each week, contributions like this are more than financial lifelines. They are symbols of compassion that keep shelves stocked with fresh produce and staples, while also sustaining the dignity of those who rely on its services. Nearly half of the people the food bank serves are children—a reminder that behind every number is a story of resilience, and every donation helps shape a stronger future.

Leadership with a purpose

Paul Arora’s commitment reflects the role business leaders can play in creating meaningful change. His support signals more than a charitable act; it demonstrates a belief in the Surrey Food Bank’s mission to not only provide food but also connect families to resources that guide them toward stability and self-sufficiency.

A ripple effect of hope

The generosity of Gagan Foods International reaches far beyond the walls of the food bank. It inspires confidence that when businesses and communities come together, real transformation happens—one meal, one family, one future at a time.

In expressing its gratitude, the Surrey Food Bank recognizes this gift as a powerful reminder, that hunger can be met with hope, and that partnerships rooted in compassion can uplift an entire community.

At the heart of every thriving community are people and organizations willing to step forward when they are needed most
