Our Supporters
He Waka Eke Noa - We're All in this Together
We are a community organisation that relies on our wider team of supporters to help those in need. Thank you for your ongoing support.
Individuals, Families, Schools, Workplaces and Faith-Based Groups
We receive donated food and grocery products, homegrown fruit and vegetables, and financial donations from across the Hutt Valley. This support comes from kai collections, gifting, and fundraising events like mufti days, sausage sizzles, exhibitions, quizzes and movie nights that people in our community organise themselves.
Supermarkets
New World Hutt City and the two PAK'nSAVE supermarkets (Petone and Lower Hutt) have donation bins just past their checkouts where you can place food and grocery items you've purchased for the Foodbank. We clear these several times a week.
Twice a year (usually June and November) our local supermarkets allow us to hold our Food Drive at their entrances. Local shoppers fill our trolleys with donated food items to give our shelves a much needed boost.
We also partner with New World Hutt City and PAK'nSAVE Lower Hutt for their Family2Family appeal and PAK'canSAVE initiative.
Kaibosh, the Wellington-based food-rescue organisation, supplies us with fresh produce, bread and other food items each week
Volunteer Wellington connects and strengthens the community and voluntary sector through volunteer engagement, professional development, networking opportunities, support and mentoring services. We have been able to recruit a diverse range of volunteers through their recruitment and referral service.
The Community Comms Collective is a group of communications people volunteering their time to help community organisations communicate better. They helped us develop a Communications Plan to raise the Foodbank's profile in our community, grow partnerships and communicate with our stakeholders.
