Canadian Foodgrains Bank
The Canadian Foodgrains Bank (CFGB) is a non-profit, charitable organization that collects grain and cash donations in efforts to end hunger in developing countries.

Grain delivered for donation:
- can be either wheat or durum
- must be in storable condition
- is subject to elevator space
- is exempt from CWB delivery authorizations
- is not included in CWB pool accounts and, therefore not eligible for any future CWB adjustment, interim of final payments
- cannot be contracted under an Identity Preserved contract program
The following classes and grades are eligible for donation:
- Nos. 1, 2 and 3 Canada Western Red Spring (CWRS) wheat
- All grades of Canada Prairie Spring Red (CPSR) wheat
