Bellyful Taupo
Bellyful Taupo provides meals for families with newborn babies and families with young children who are struggling with illness.
Waikato
Bellyful Taupo is a branch of a nationwide not-for-profit charity. We provide practical support, encouragement and friendship to families with new babies, during what can be a very lonely and difficult time. We are encouraging communities to get together and support each other - and for families to not be afraid to ask for help!
Bellyful Taupo was established in September 2018 and is planning to begin delivering meals at the beginning of 2019.
Bellyful branches are locally funded by their local communities, and are completely volunteer run.
About us
Bellyful cooks and delivers meals to families with babies and young children who need extra support.
Bellyful has been supporting families in New Zealand for 10 years. We provide meals in 24 communities throughout NZ, thanks to the help of over 680 volunteers. In the last year we have delivered 26,000 meals to 4,600 families. We receive referrals from health professionals such as social workers, Plunket nurses and midwives, as well as family and friends. You can even refer yourself - it takes a lot of courage to ask for help.
Use of funds
Money raised will be spent on purchasing ingredients, containers, labels etc. for meals and a small amount will be used for the costs of running the branch, for example brochures, cooking equipment, room rental.
