Kapiti Community Foodbank

Kapiti Community Foodbank We are a registered charity (CC26922) that could not exist without the assistance of volunteers & al

17/09/2026

Behind our team of dedicated volunteers who work tirelessly 5 days a week, is a Board of 9 volunteers who meet once a month for a couple of hours to ensure the smooth running of this organisation.
The Board is elected each October for 12 months. With a number of members leaving this year due to rotation, we currently need a further 2 or 3 new Board members.
If you feel you would like to assist this wonderful Community organisation and can spare energy, enthusiasm and a couple of hours once a month, please either contact our Chairman Richard Moulton at [email protected] or our Manager Jill Mason 027 750 8054 to discuss further.

We want to take a moment to recognise the incredible financial support we receive from Pak’nSave Kāpiti. Their ongoing contributions play a vital role in keeping our shelves stocked and ensuring local whānau have access to the essentials they need.

This partnership means we can respond quickly when supplies run low, support more families during tough times, and continue providing reliable, compassionate help across our community.

To the team at Pak’nSave Kāpiti — thank you for standing with us. Your generosity strengthens our mahi every single week, and we’re deeply grateful for your commitment to supporting local people.

Ngā mihi nui, Pak’nSave Kāpiti. Your support truly matters.
