Buy a virtual Festive Food Basket for family and friends this year!
Give a Christmas gift of food to people seeking asylum in our community. Simply select a basket of your choice ($25, $50, $75, $100 or a whopping $500 for groups) and we will send you a special Christmas e-card to deliver to your friends and family as a thank you! Or simply for yourself!Your generous donation of food is giving the spirit of generosity, telling those who are doing it tough in our community that we care. Just like us, they have the right to enough healthy food, which means enough to feed their families.
This Christmas, you can help fill our Foodbank shelves and ensure that each person that comes through our doors will not go hungry!

Food drive time...
The Foodbank relies on the community to provide 85% of the food on our shelves! Each week we welcome approx 600 people through our doors and we just can't fill their trolleys without you. At the moment we have way too many empty shelves at the end of the day and for this time of year it is a real concern to us! Can you help us by organising a Christmas Food Drive?It is so inspiring when school and community groups deliver their food drive collections! To see that young students are getting involved and making a practical contribution to benefit others just warms our hearts, and the hearts of our ASRC members.
So get a group of friends together, maybe at work, at church, your scout group and help to make a difference this Christmas for people seeking asylum. We can send you a poster with what food we need most urgently, so complete the form below and start your drive today!

At this time of year The Foodbank sits back and reflect on the extraordinary efforts our Foodbank community donors and supporters have offered us! Thank you for your continued participation in providing food security for our members during their time of hardship. Food will always be a comfort to us all and particularly as many of us enjoy this festive season with family, friends and amazing celebrations with food!! So we say thanks again and look forward to doing it all again in 2017.Thanks for being part of the ASRC Foodbank this year.
