Second Harvest Suffers Vehicle Theft, Expects Financial Loss

Second Harvest reported a break-in at its Etobicoke facility after midnight on Thanksgiving Sunday. Thieves stole catalytic converters from seven of the organization's eight delivery trucks. Second Harvest expects to incur losses amounting to tens of thousands of dollars following the incident, which left nearly all delivery vehicles inoperable.

The theft severely impacts Second Harvest's operational capacity to redistribute meals to residents in need within Toronto. The organization relies on partners like Walmart and Sysco for food supply, making the loss of transport critical to its charitable mission.
