International, exchange and refugee students, join the SWC & International Student Experience for monthly grocery trips in Hamilton! Through these trips, you’ll have the chance to connect to your own culture through familiar foods and ingredients. You will also learn about other cultural foods. You’ll receive free food tastings and tips on grocery budgeting and how to maintain a balanced diet.

This project was funded by the McMaster Okanagan Office of Health and Well-being, an Office dedicated to promoting the health and well-being of all students, staff, and faculty at McMaster. For more information, visit okanagan.mcmaster.ca
