Fundraise for Foodbank 2024 - CANCELLED

Sharon Wills from New Plymouth Community Food Bank

This event has been CANCELLED.

New Plymouth Community Foodbank and Waitara Foodbank Pataka Kai work closely together to provide a much-needed service within our communities with this year tracking towards being our busiest year on record with more people reaching out for assistance.

Our annual Christmas food drives were a success in December however due to increasing demand for our services we need to top up the shelves and pay some bills.
So, we are collaborating to raise funds by hosting a charity auction this June, with all proceeds to be utilised within our communities to support people who are experiencing food insecurity.
Donations of quality goods, experiences and services are needed to make this event a success – we would appreciate your support with a donation from your business. If you would like to buy a ticket to the event please check out events.humanitix.com...

On behalf of Waitara Foodbank Pataka Kai and New Plymouth Community Foodbank, ngā mihi nui.

Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

With pointed fangs, I sit and wait;

I grab victims, proclaiming might,
and physically join with a single bite.
What am I?
