We are fundraising to support our local chapter of OzHarvest in Coffs Harbour
Every single $1 donated will enable OzHarvest Coffs to deliver 2 meals to vulnerable Australians in our local community.
Their fleet of yellow vans are on the road everyday saving good surplus food from ending up in landfill and delivering it to charities that help feed people in need across the nation.
At a time when the rising cost of living has seen the need for food relief significantly increase, your support is more valuable than ever.
On any given day, over half a million households in Australia are struggling to put food on the table, with those with children are being hardest hit.
Additionally, OzHarvest reports that throughout their network of recipient charities, 30% of the people seeking support are doing so for the first time.
Of course, every meal delivered also means that good food is diverted from landfill. Food going into landfill is a huge contributor to dangerous greenhouse gas emissions, with 10% of all emissions impacting climate change coming from food waste.
