❤️ Our entire operation is volunteer-based; we couldn’t do what we do without the hard mahi of some very dedicated and giving people.

We asked some of our volunteers why they decide to volunteer with us - here’s what they said!

🙏 Unfortunately we have run severely low on paper bags for our lunches - we would be so grateful if you could come to our rescue!

We use rectangle paper bags, around 30cm wide and 23cm tall. Supermarket bags are perfect and we don't mind logos.

👉 Please drop them to 55 Mays Road - we are in desperate need of as many as possible as soon as possible, any amount is greatly appreciated!

♥ We absolutely love to see schools that receive our Full Bellies lunches get behind us and show their support like Isleworth primary has done recently.

🙏 Isleworth recently held a non-uniform day to raise money for our cause, and they also held a baking drive - we had a lovely visit from head students Israel, Payton, and Zoe, and teacher Mr. Davidson, to deliver the yummy treats they collected as well as some adorable handmade cards 🥰

👉 We are so grateful for the love and effort shown by the students and staff at Isleworth - we are truly inspired by your initiative!

🧁 With the number of schools we are delivering to increasing, we are making more lunches every week, which means more baked goods are needed... we are so thankful for TK Plastering for coming to our rescue this term - here's Bernie with 12 slabs of lolly cake for our Full Bellies tamariki to enjoy!

♥ These guys are such epic supporters of our cause - we cannot thank them enough for their dedication and enthusiasm.

👉 Donating baking for our lunches is such a helpful way to support us - message us or email [email protected] to find out more!

♥ Each Full Bellies lunch costs $8.50 to produce. This incredible show of support from the Rotary Club of Bishopdale/Burnside will help to make over 1150 nutritious lunches for local tamariki.

🥰 It fills our hearts to see Christchurch supporting its own - thank you Rotary for backing Full Bellies and helping us to ensure kids can focus on their learning journeys and their dreams 🙏

🍎 Every early morning prepping session at Full Bellies is a little different thanks to the incredible energy our volunteers bring, but there are some things you are guaranteed to hear every time…

We asked some of our volunteer fam what they always hear on a Full Bellies morning - here’s what they said!!

🍲 As the mornings get colder, we are so thankful that our Full Bellies tamariki can enjoy hot, homemade vege soup to warm them up thanks to the generosity of Te Pae Christchurch Convention Centre, Bidfood NZ, and Canterbury Masonic Charitable Trust ♥

A huge thank you to Te Pae Christchurch Convention Centre for making delicious soup and muffins for our Full Bellies children - there is something incredibly special about people coming together, rolling up their sleeves and creating nourishing food with so much care.

Thank you to Bidfood NZ for donating the cups and lids for the soup program, and Canterbury Masonic Charitable Trust for providing our schools with crock pots to heat up the soup!

👏 From chopping vegetables to baking muffins, every effort helps fill little bellies and reminds our tamariki that their community is behind them. We are so grateful for the kindness, energy, and generosity shown by the crew at Te Pae and the support from Bidfood and Canterbury Masonic to bring the soup program together 🥰
