Chris Quin - CEO Foodstuffs North Island Visits KCA

Phil Davies from Kiwi Community Assistance (KCA)

On the 19th June, Tawa/Grenada North charity was privileged to have Chris Quin - CEO of Foodstuffs North Island visit KCA.

It marks 8 years sponsorship when we first starting to receive donations from Foodstuffs Wellington which then became part of Foodstuffs North Island.

KCA rescues food from New World Khandallah, Newlands New World, Churton Park New World, New World Tawa, New World Porirua, New World Whitby and New World Paremata.

Foodstuffs NI Transport Division in Auckland, Palmerston North and Grenada North also assist us with backfilling of trucks to get donated goods from Chep (food rescue crates) and other stock donated from other parts of the NZ to us in Wellington.

In 2.5 months of operating since 1st April, KCA has redistributed over 102 tons of food in the Greater Wellington community. All food is shared with the local foodbanks, schools and partner agencies with whom we have a service contract with.
