About the appeal

*** HARVEST APPEAL EXTENDED THROUGH TO CHRISTMAS ***
Thank you to everyone who has already given to our Harvest Van Appeal.We are continuing to see amazing generosity in food donations to support people who need to access our emergency food parcels. In response we are extending our Harvest Appeal through Christmas. We are asking if you are in a position to support us, whether you could consider making a financial donation towards our appeal to replace our small van. Our vans are crucial to our work as our volunteer drivers collect food donations and deliver food to our client facing centres across the city.
If you want to support us by donating in other ways please visit our website. Your support means so much to us and those in need across the city.

Original Appeal
We have seen such incredible generosity from so many individuals, community groups, local businesses and companies, including Tesco and Morrisons donating food during the Coronavirus pandemic. If you are considering supporting us this harvest time, we wanted to ask if you could do that with finance rather than food, as we have sufficient stock to meet the needs of those in crisis for the next few months.We are looking at replacing the small van which is starting to have recurring mechanical problems, so that we can continue to effectively transport food around Cardiff, picking up food from collection points and delivering it to our centres to support those in crisis. It would be great if we could purchase a hybrid or electric option replacement for our van helping us to be mindful of our environmental commitment.Our vans are driven by a team of volunteers, collecting food donations from our partner supermarkets and other locations across Cardiff and delivering food to our client distribution centres throughout the week, so is an essential part of our operation.

We’ve created our Harvest campaign to raise funds for this project, we’re looking to raise around £25,000 and we are asking businesses, churches, schools and individuals if they would be willing to support us with a financial donation this harvest?

Would you consider supporting our Harvest Appeal? You can select any of the donations amounts on this page or enter an amount of your choice (£2 minimum via Local Giving).
We would ask that any donation includes the name of the church and the words ‘ New Van’ so that we can designate the funds and update you on progress. Please visit our website for other was to make a financial donation to Cardiff Foodbank. https://cardiff.foodbank.org.uk/give-help/donate/

We believe that ‘together we can make a difference for our city’. Thank you for your support!
