Listen: Foodbank NSW & ACT's Janene Manwaring speaks about food insecurity in Australia throughout 2020 and what Foodbank has done to assist families

According to the latest research by Foodbank NSW & ACT, COVID-19 has increased the demand for food relief in our State, which is why Hope 103.2 is honoured to partner with them for our Building Hope 2020 Appeal, in order to support those who have continued to support us throughout this fatiguing year.

About Foodbank NSW & ACT

Foodbank is Australia’s largest food relief charity, providing approximately 70 per cent of food assistance to individuals and families across NSW & the ACT. They partner with over 1000 charity partners and schools to distribute food to those facing hardship, with 373,173 people receiving food assistance each month. Foodbank NSW & ACT works closely with the Australian food and grocery industry, farmers, wholesalers, manufacturers and retailers to source stock that does not meet retail standards or is excess product. In addition, they collaborate with suppliers and transport companies to source key staple foods such as meat, pasta, noodle, rice and grain that don’t come in sufficient quantities via rescue channels.
