We are all just 1 pay day away from having to rely on a food bank. These places are what keeps people alive and they get very little help. Most people have a food budget of around £100 per week for a family of 4. Imagine having a budget of £0! My aim is to raise £100 by running the Manchester 10k and I'm asking my wonderful family and friends to donate anything they can. Even just £1 could buy a bag of pasta to feed a family of 4 for a few days. £5 would buy sanitary products for a woman or teen who would otherwise have none and £10 could buy a bag of shopping that could feed the family for a whole week. Please if you can afford to donate then do it. If you can't then please consider adding 1 item to your shopping every week to donate. Even if it's a smart price tin of beans, it could stop someone from starving.
