Food Bank

Pepeke Kai

Food parcels are for when unforeseen circumstances make life difficult; come into the community house - we are here to help. The Financial Mentor or Family Support Worker can visit food parcel recipients for ongoing follow up and budget assistance and advocacy if or when needed .
Can we help

Our Foodbank is generously supported through donations for the benefit of the community. It is available to support members of the community through those hard times which can impact on incomes and having enough food for the week. We can offer ongoing budgeting or financial planning to help you work on a longer term plan or vision for yourself or you family/whanau. Planning for a better financial future is possible for all of us despite any past or current difficulties we may think are preventing us from achieving in life.
