More than an event, Plates of Hope&nbsp;reflects&nbsp;the community\u2019s shared belief that no one should face hardship alone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A Community Response to Growing Need<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2025 alone, the Prince Albert Salvation Army served 37,000 meals, underscoring the growing need for food support in the community, a need that continues despite the loss of its building to fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first Plates of Hope event&nbsp;in 2025&nbsp;was driven by the community and&nbsp;featured&nbsp;portraits of clients who&nbsp;benefitted&nbsp;from the bagged lunch program run by the Prince Albert Salvation Army.&nbsp;Funds raised&nbsp;went towards&nbsp;expanding the meal program to&nbsp;provide a&nbsp;plated&nbsp;hot meal served in a&nbsp;formal&nbsp;dining room.&nbsp;The event raised $65,000.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the fire, the feeding program has restarted in a new location in the&nbsp;Union Centre (107 8th St E Prince Albert, SK S6V 0V8).&nbsp;Funds are needed to&nbsp;support meal programs and other essential services, helping ensure the Salvation Army&nbsp;in Prince Albert&nbsp;can continue meeting the evolving needs of the community.&nbsp;The Salvation Army Prince Albert&nbsp;hopes to raise $250,000 this year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c<em>Plates of Hope is a gathering rooted in generosity, connection, and shared responsibility<\/em>,\u201d&nbsp;says&nbsp;Dean. \u201c<em>It reflects the strength of a community that continues to show up for one another, even in the most challenging circumstances<\/em>.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure
