Everyone deserves to feed and care for their family with dignity through the good times and the bad. We'll match every donation up to $5K.

Canterbury

When we heard there is currently a 160% increase in demand for food bank services compared to this time last year, we knew we wanted to help. We believe everyone deserves the ability to feed and care for themselves and their family with dignity through the good times and the bad. Our community needs a little extra love during this challenging time and this is one way we can help.

We are committing to match every dollar you donate up to $5,000. We'll split the total donations between Christchurch City Mission and 0800 Hungry who both supply food parcels to families in Ōtautahi Christchurch.

Let's help those that are already doing an incredible job to meet the increased demand and show the consumers of the food bank good parcels that they are loved and supported by the Ōtautahi Christchurch community and wider.

(Also, we won't be mad if you all surpass our donation limit! Please share as far and wide as you can.)
