With winter fast approaching, we are collecting canned food, non-perishable food items and toiletries to donate to the Auckland City Mission.
One in five Auckland families is currently struggling to put food on the table.
In 22-23, Auckland City Mission distributed more than 50,000 food parcels and provided food and general supplies to 50 local food banks and community organisations.
Through the month of June we will have a table in the church foyer for donations. The types of items that are sorely needed are:
- non-perishable food items such as:
- canned fish
- canned vegetables (green beans, corn, tomatoes)
- canned fruit
- spreads (marmite, peanut butter)
- rice and pasta
- toiletries such as shampoo and conditioner, toothpaste and toothbrushes, feminine products, soap and moisturiser.
For more information, please go to the Auckland City Mission website, or contact us at admin@horizon.org.nz. If you would prefer a financial donation, there are options on the Auckland City Mission website.
