The Mustard Seed

🤠2,731 meals served to our community for FREE at our Stampede Round Up BBQ on Friday!🤠 Every year, we gather in front of our Downtown Community Impact Centre in Calgary to celebrate the kickoff of Stampede and thank our amazing community for their support throughout the year! We had a blast this year with a petting zoo, line dancers, Indigenous drummers, games, and so much more! This event wouldn't be possible without the amazing support of our sponsors, donors, volunteers, staff, and community members. You make it all happen - from that first warm meal, to someone's first night in shelter, to finally receiving keys for a home of one's own. New beginnings happen everyday at The Mustard Seed, and it's all because of your amazing support and care for folks!💛 An extra big shoutout and thank you to the following: TransAlta PepsiCo Gordon Food Service - Canada CBN Commercial Solutions | Print • Direct Mail • Digital Butterfield Acres Sprog & Sprocket Parish Coffee 176 Keys Stardale Women's Group Outlaw Dance #Stampede2026 #Calgary #HopeGrowsHere

🤠 Yahoo! What an incredible day at The Mustard Seed Calgary! We hosted our 17th Annual Stampede BBQ, and to say it was a success would be an understatement. Together, we served over 2,800 delicious meals to our amazing community! 🍔✨ A huge shoutout to the incredible Communications and Marketing team. Your hard work, creativity, and dedication behind the scenes made this event seamlessly come to life. Thank you for telling our story and bringing everyone together! The energy was electric, thanks to the entertainment by 176 Keys, creative face painting, Butterfield Acres petting zoo and the legendary BBQ beef on a bun, masterfully prepared by our very own Chef Geraldo. Most importantly, thank you, Calgary! 💙 Your continued support allows us to keep showing up for our neighbours and building a community where everyone cares. We are so grateful for our team, our volunteers, and our city. #TheMustardSeed #CalgaryStampede #CommunityFirst #CalgaryEvents #TeamAppreciation #Stampede2026 #

For many people experiencing homelessness, a typical day can involve walking anywhere from 5 to 15 miles in search of food, shelter, services, safety, and community.  So this summer I'm going to be biking for hope to support The Mustard Seed! Looking to get active for a good cause this summer? Join my team or donate! https://lnkd.in/gKWM7qaG

Did you know that people experiencing homelessness can walk an average of 5-15 miles a day, in search of food, shelter and other resources? For a lot of us, we have a goal of hitting 10k steps every day. Isn't it crazy that that's on the low end of 5-15 miles?! I'm committing to walking every day, until August 31st, alongside The Mustard Seed for their 5 to 15 challenge, and I would really love for you to join me! My goal is to raise $500 for our neighbours experiencing homelessness and poverty. Why 5 to 15? Not only is it the average # of miles people may walk a day, but it also costs about $5 to provide a meal to someone in need, or $15 for a full day of meals! $500 = 100 meals. So walk with me this summer, or bike or run, or tell 15 people you love them! Either way, it would be great to have you on the team 💛 The Walkie Talkies https://lnkd.in/gYZ-6uhT

It’s almost that time again! Make sure to swing by our 17th Annual Stampede BBQ next Friday following the parade. See you there!

For 24 years, the Ted Green Memorial Golf Tournament has been about far more than golf. It has been about hope. Because of the incredible generosity of our sponsors, donors, golfers, volunteers, and community partners, this tournament has raised more than $2.1 million to support life-changing programs at The Mustard Seed in Edmonton. Every drive down the fairway, every sponsorship, every raffle ticket, and every donation has helped create lasting impact for individuals experiencing poverty, homelessness, and complex barriers. Over the years, tournament proceeds have helped fund critical initiatives including: 💛Supporting individuals as they move from emergency shelter into permanent housing. 💛Providing wraparound supports within our supportive housing communities, helping residents build stability, connection, and independence. 💛Funding vital mental health and recovery counselling services, ensuring people have access to the care and support they need on their journey toward wellness. 💛Expanding food security programs at a time when demand continues to rise. In 2025 alone, The Mustard Seed served more than 200,000 meals in Edmonton—an extraordinary milestone that reflects both the growing need in our community and the compassion of those who step forward to help. While the tournament is named in honour of Ted Green, its legacy belongs to every person who has chosen to invest in the lives of others over the past 24 years. To our sponsors, donors, golfers, volunteers, staff, and supporters: thank you. Thank you for showing up year after year. Thank you for believing that everyone deserves a place to call home, access to nutritious food, and the support needed to build a brighter future. The impact of this tournament can be measured in dollars raised, but its true legacy is found in lives changed, hope restored, and futures rewritten. Here’s to 24 years of changing lives—and to the many more still to come. “Together, we’re proving that when a community comes together around a common purpose, extraordinary things happen.” #Edmonton #HopeGrowsHere Worley Habitat Studio Certified Group Myshak Group of Companies Stahl Peterbilt Inc Victory Equipment Rentals InsureLine Empire Comco Pipe & Supply Company FIRTH Engineering Ltd.

A safe place to stay can be the first step toward hope, healing, and a brighter future. At The Mustard Seed in Kamloops, our shelter teams walk alongside individuals experiencing homelessness, helping them access support, stability, and opportunities to rebuild their lives. We are currently seeking a Shelter Manager who is passionate about serving others and leading with compassion and purpose.
