Christmas Appeal and Tesco Christmas Food Drive

Doncaster Foodbank is requesting donations for its Christmas Appeal and its Christmas Food Drive ( November 26th, 27th 28th) at Tesco Woodfield Plantation, Woodfield Way, Doncaster DN4 8SN.

This is your chance to do something amazing!

Thank all for your support of Doncaster Foodbank in donating much needed food items. We are so grateful for your partnership. Your support means we can help people in our community who are facing hunger and hardship. Thank you!

Last year, Doncaster Foodbank fulfilled 4067 Emergency Food Vouchers and distributed Emergency Food Parcels to 7327 local people in Doncaster. 2125 were children. A total of 57,809 kgs of food!

This year, so far, (till the 1st August) we have fulfilled 2216 Emergency Food Vouchers and distributed Emergency Food Parcels to 3938 local people in Doncaster,1085 were children, A total of 29,231 kgs of food!

Every visitor who attends our Foodbanks has been professionally assessed by local referral agencies and have been deemed in urgent need of Emergency Food Aid.

But, unfortunately, more and more people in our community are going without food – and at the foodbank we’ve seen need increased need for donations that will increase in the Winter. Your help and assistance will be invaluable in providing support to people that need it.

We would like to ask; will you partner with us again to help make a difference in our community?

Christmas is such an important time of year for us, as it helps us to stock up on essentials people in our community will need this winter. You may like to organise a collection at your school or community. We could provide support, signposting as well as transport if you are unable to deliver the food to us.

Alternatively, making a financial donation could help us to buy any stock we’re short of for the winter. Crucially your generous financial gift means we can invest in infrastructure and continue to offer a warm welcome to anyone who needs our help.

Thank you for your time and support.
