The CP Holiday Train is North America’s longest rolling food bank fundraiser and since it started in 1999, the program has raised close to $9.5 million and 3.3 million pounds of food. Over the three weeks of the program, musicians will play more than 150 concerts from a boxcar turned into a travelling stage.
The concerts are free, but attendees are encouraged to bring a donation for their local food bank — either a non-perishable food item or a cash donation. All contributions stay in the community.
