🍎 HELP US GET READY FOR THE OCTOBER SCHOOL HOLIDAYS 🍎
The school holidays can be a really difficult time for families who are already struggling.
When the school closes, families suddenly have to find money for extra meals and snacks at home — at a time when household budgets are already stretched.
At The Gate, we want to make sure that families in our community don't have to choose between putting food on the table and paying their bills.
So, as we get ready for the October school holidays, we're asking for your help.
💛 We'd really appreciate donations of food OR money.
If you'd like to donate food, we're particularly looking for things that families can use for lunches, snacks and meals during the holidays.
If you'd rather make a financial donation, even £5 makes a difference and helps us buy the things we need most.
You can make a donation here:

And if you'd like to become a regular supporter, £5 a month would be amazing. Regular donations help us plan ahead and make sure we can continue supporting families throughout the year.
🎒 Every bag of food. Every £5. Every share. It all helps.
If you'd like to donate food, please drop it into The Gate Charity in Alloa during our opening hours.
And if you can't donate, please share this post. It really does help us reach more people.
Thank you for helping us look after our community. ❤️
