This week we need some winter warmers like soup, tinned casserole, rice and noodles. And, as always, kids lunch box snacks for all our families doing it tough. Anything you can drop into our drop boxes would be much appreciated.

🙏 A heartfelt thank you to the Rotary Club and to Graham Snell, Barry Wills and Laurel Harrison for dropping off this wonderful donation of toiletries — generously given to the club by our amazing community.

These items are so deeply needed right now. Our client numbers are growing week by week, and the demand on the Gisborne Foodbank has never been greater. Without the kindness and generosity of people like you, we simply couldn't keep up.

Together, we can make sure no one in our community goes without. 💛

Say hi to Maria. She's a cooking volunteer and gardener from the New Gisborne Community Garden, located at the New Gisborne Church of Christ. Not only does the garden send much of their wonderful produce our way, but the church has made their commercial kitchen available for us to make meals for those in our community who need that support. We couldn't do it without them 🙏🏼

has been a supporter of the Gisborne Foodbank since we started. Most recently, the team donated all of the takeaway containers for our first Cooking Group. Pictured here are Braydan and Michael from the store with the donation. Thank you to them! And thank you to everyone who continues to donate pantry items to our Foodworks drop box, when they shop in the store 🥰

We are incredibly grateful to local Gisborne restaurants and (Trinh's Vietnamese restaurant) for their generous and heartfelt donations.

Both restaurants have each donated $500 cash and $500 in meal vouchers, all of which will go directly to the families in our community who need it most. What makes this even more special is that these businesses are regular supporters of the Gisborne Foodbank. Their ongoing commitment to our community is something we treasure deeply.

If you'd like to show your support for these amazing restaurants that give back to our community, please give them a visit on your next meal out.
