With this deadline looming upon us , we are finding it difficult while trying to remain open, organize planning and Fund raise. to not only accommodate costs to run our charitable organization. weekly we help assist 200+ people
With the Generous help of Community and organizations such as the Sutherland Self help trust we have Land An Architect & Lawyer Giving their time free, We have raised $5,500 from Fundraising and Donations with more fundraisers planned. Applied to Endeavor Community Foundation to help with cost of Piles and Concrete, LDS Charities is helping towards the contract work, & an application to First Sovereign Trust to help with drainage. . .with it costing $20,000 more than Anticipated Due to the Size and age of the building, Obstacles in the way on route, we have come to far for this to fail.

Love Soup started in 2013, giving out soup during Matariki. Pretty soon we were a fully blown food rescue charity in Whangaparāoa. Partnering with food providers, like supermarkets, to rescue good food that would have gone to waste and help turn it into nourishing meals to deliver to the people in our communities who really need them.
We have done a lot of growing since we first began. We are now rescuing and delivering good food with our partners in Whangaparāoa, Auckland, Huntly, Ngaruawahia, Hamilton, Tokoroa, Rotorua and Te Kuiti and running 5 kitchens of our own in Auckland + 1 in Tokoroa! Feeding anyone and everyone who needs it.
We believe that it is not only our mission to feed people, but to treat our guests with the dignity and love that we would a guest in our own home, providing our service without judgement or expectation.
We are completely run by our wonderful volunteers and are very proud of what we have accomplished and look forward to helping even more people as we continue.
