Te Atatū Foodbank

The Te Atatū Foodbank is a community run service offering food assistance to our locals in need.

Book here: https://teatatufoodbank.zohobookings.com.au/ #/30021000000045052 OPENING THUR 22nd FEB 2024

The Te Atatū Foodbank offers food assistance and non-judgmental support to our local Te Atatū Peninsula whānau that find themselves in need. Food parcels contain a variety of fresh and non-perishable grocery items and include items such as meat and fresh vegetables wherever possible. This service

is 100% run by members of our local community with the support of Te Atatū Baptist Church, and relies on volunteer staff and community contributions and donations. Online bookings are essential and collection time slots MUST be met due to our limited capacity. To book, please use the following link:

Please keep in mind that we are all volunteers that are doing the best we can, with what we have to hand- your respect and patience is appreciated. To enquire about supporting our Foodbank by way of volunteering with us or making a contribution, please contact our team via [email protected] or FB messenger- we would love to hear from you!

A huge thank you to our wonderful community for the generous donations being left in our collection point at the Te Atatū Peninsula Library! 💛

Every donation, big or small, makes a real difference to local families who need a helping hand. We’re so grateful for the ongoing support of our community and everyone who thinks of the Foodbank when doing their grocery shopping.

And we have some exciting news! 🎉 We’ll soon have a permanent Te Atatū Foodbank collection box at our lovely new New World Te Atatū.

We’re incredibly grateful to the New World team for supporting the Foodbank and making it even easier for our community to donate. 🛒❤️

Thank you, Te Atatū, for continuing to look after each other.

A huge Te Atatū Foodbank welcome to Ashleigh and the team at New World Te Atatū! 🎉

We were delighted to welcome Ashleigh to the foodbank recently to meet our volunteer team and learn more about the work we do to support local families.

We’re incredibly grateful that New World Te Atatū has committed to supporting our community by hosting a permanent Te Atatū Foodbank donation collection box in their new supermarket. This means shoppers will be able to easily donate much-needed pantry items every time they visit.

Thank you, Ashleigh and the New World Te Atatū team, for partnering with us to help make a real difference in our community. Your support will help ensure local families facing hardship receive the assistance they need.

We wish you every success with your opening on 11 August and look forward to working together for many years to come.

Please join us in welcoming New World Te Atatū and thanking them for their wonderful support of our community! 💙

It’s Volunteer Week, and we want to say a huge thank you to the incredible people behind Te Atatū Foodbank. ❤️

Every food parcel packed, every donation sorted, every shelf stocked, every family supported – none of it would happen without our amazing volunteers.

Our volunteers generously give their time, energy, and care to help ensure local families have access to food when they need it most. They work quietly behind the scenes, often without recognition, simply because they want to make a difference in our community.

To each and every one of you: thank you. We are so grateful for your commitment, kindness, and willingness to serve others. You are the heart of our Foodbank, and our community is stronger because of you.

Please join us in celebrating and thanking these wonderful people during Volunteer Week. 👏💚

A huge thank you to Sophie and Maeve, who organised this fantastic food collection as part of their Gold Koru Community Action project. Local legends!!

With support from Peninsula Primary School and To’a Brownies, they collected a wonderful amount of food that will now be distributed to local families through Te Atatū Foodbank.

It’s inspiring to see young people stepping up to make a difference in their community. The food collected will help stock our shelves and go directly into food parcels for families who need a helping hand.

Thank you, Sophie and Maeve, and everyone at Peninsula Primary School and To’a Brownies who contributed. Your kindness and hard work will have a real impact on many local families. ❤️

🌾 A Huge Thank You to JMP Engineering! 🌾

We would like to extend a MASSIVE thanks to JMP Engineering for their incredible generosity in donating an entire pallet load of rice to Te Atatū Foodbank for the second year in a row.

If you’ve received a food parcel from us over the past year, there’s a very good chance some of the rice in your parcel came from this amazing donation. Rice is one of our most useful pantry staples, helping families create filling and nutritious meals when times are tough.

The support of local businesses like JMP Engineering makes a real difference and helps us continue providing food parcels to families throughout our community.

Thank you for standing alongside us and helping ensure local families have food on the table. We are incredibly grateful for your ongoing support. ❤️

🌾🙏🏻

A huge thank you to the Te Atatu Rsa for their incredibly generous donation to Te Atatū Foodbank this week. You are absolute legends!

Your charitable support will go directly toward helping provide food parcels for local families doing it tough in our community. With the demand for support continuing to grow, donations like this make a real and immediate difference.

We’re so grateful for community organisations like the RSA who continue to step up and support local people in need. Thank you for helping us care for our community together - we love our little neighbourhood!! 💛

April was another busy month at Te Atatū Foodbank, with school holidays and five Thursdays contributing to increased demand for support in our local community.

Here is what we achieved together in April:

107 bookings completed

457 people supported
226 adults
231 children

125 volunteer hours generously given, including our amazing volunteer transport team

Our referrals come from many places including families reaching out directly, neighbours helping neighbours, local schools, Plunket, and other social services. Every booking supports someone right here in our Te Atatū community.

Thank you to our incredible volunteers, donors, and supporters. Your generosity helps us continue to show up for local families when they need it most. Every contribution makes a difference.

Another week of food collections done ✅

A huge thank you to everyone in our community who continues to support Te Atatū Foodbank. Every donation helps us keep food going out to local families who need a hand. ❤️

We’re also on the lookout for some extra shelving to help us better organise our food storage and make packing parcels easier and more efficient.

If anyone has any spare sturdy storage shelves they no longer need and would be willing to donate, we’d love to hear from you.

Please send us a private message if you can help. Thank you again for backing our community foodbank 🙏

Today we just want to pause and say a huge THANK YOU 💛

Behind every food parcel that goes out, there’s a team of incredible volunteers giving their time, energy, and care to support families in our community. Whether it’s packing, sorting, delivering, or simply showing up with a smile — you make it all possible.

We’re so grateful for each and every one of you. The impact you’re making reaches further than you probably realise.

From all of us at Te Atatū Foodbank — thank you for being the heart of what we do 🙏
