Pass the Snacks Geelong

Thank you Second Chance Shop for choosing us as your charity partner for the month of June!

This month and the next can be tricky for many kids and their families we support through our schools. The school holidays start from the 26th June, so this month is critical for us to deliver over a hundred food boxes just before the end of term to ease school holiday hunger.

If you are in a position to support our work either through a purchase at the shop, a financial donation via our website or donated food, we would be so appreciative!

This month we are proudly partnering with Pass the Snacks Geelong This group do fantastic work in our school community. Providing snacks for children who may go without, offering beautiful support during the school holidays when foodbanks and breakfast clubs are not availbale for the children to access. Shop at Second Chance Op Shop, this month a portion of our profits go directly to Pass the Snacks.

How do we know our food boxes reach the kids and families that need them?

Because we deeply trust our schools and their caring staff who know their families and have their trust, and can see the direct need.

Feedback from our schools is that they really value the ability which the food boxes give them to not only hear the need, but then be able to respond with immediate relief by giving families extra food before the holidays creep in and school holiday hunger starts.
