Filling our foodbank for Otago families in need.
Our foodbank has experienced demand like never before. With financial stress due to the increasing cost of living, we are seeing large numbers of new families becoming vulnerable and experiencing hardship for the first time.

Our foodbank is the busiest in Dunedin and supports the wider Otago region. Up to 400 food parcels are distributed each month, including over 15,000 items, with more than 200 children benefiting. The foodbank is an integral part of the wrap-around services Family Works provides across the Otago region.
Where we can, our social workers and financial mentors work to help people get back on their feet, as the Family Works wrap-around services help with more than just food.
Your donation will make an immediate difference for people in need. Whether you can spare a little or a lot, we have four suggested giving options, or you can select a custom amount. There is also an opportunity to become a Friend of the Foodbank by making a regular monthly donation.
