We are part of the Foodlink collective and distribute food and general supplies throughout the year to more than 50 community foodbanks so that people can get food in their local area.
Foodlink relies entirely on donations, so all donations are gratefully received.
Feed it Forward for Aucklanders in need by organising a food drive in your workplace, school or community group.
We really appreciate donations of non-perishable food (including canned vegetables, pasta, breakfast cereals) and toiletries (such as toothbrushes, shampoo and feminine hygiene products). Here is a full list of items we need for our food parcels.
You can organise a food drive at any time of year.
We have a range of free resources to help make your collection a success!
