ABOUT INNER-CITY HOME

About Us

Inner-City Home of Sudbury began in April 1986 with the intention of providing shelter and emergency food bank services to those in need. After almost 37 years, our services and outreach area have expanded to be the largest providing emergency and area food bank in Greater Sudbury as well as providing high quality life-skills programs free of charge to the community.

Joe Drago
Chair
“Several years ago, I was asked to participate in a fundraising event for the Inner City Home. A couple of days later I was invited to tour the home. Speaking with several families and children waiting for food I quickly saw the need for help and for volunteer board members. I decided to join the Board to help. It has been very gratifying for me."

Caroline ("Ro") Mullen
Administrator
"I oversee day to day operations of Foyer Inner-City Home de/of Sudbury. I take care of everything from fundraising at high profile events to taking out the garbage. No job is too big or too small and I love almost every minute of it. The most rewarding part of my job is dealing with clients who have never accessed a food bank before or who have had negative experiences in the past and walk away from their time with us feeling uplifted, valued and heard.”
