Good news doesn't stop hunger on its own

The Hunger Bill passing this week is incredible news!

Whilst the changes take effect, the volunteers at South-West Belfast Foodbank are still the ones making sure local families eat.

I'm a local resident from Dunmurry, and this is my small way of backing them. We're aiming for £1,000, and I'm putting in the first £500 myself. Every pound after that helps the foodbank keep doing what it already does.

About the foodbank

South-West Belfast Foodbank provides emergency food and support to people in crisis across the Colin area, Andersonstown, the Falls, Ballymurphy, Whiterock, Turf Lodge, Springfield Road, Dunmurry and Finaghy. That's about 100,000 people. It is run and governed by Colin Glen Christian Fellowship (Charity Commission for Northern Ireland, NIC104892) and is part of the Trussell Trust network. Donations will be passed on to the foodbank.

Updates

WOW!

I wasn't expecting to hit the target within the first week, never mind the first 24 hours, so a massive thank you to everyone who has donated so far.

Because of that, I'm raising the target to £3,000. It's ambitious, but if the first £1,000 came this quickly, I think we can do it.

Every extra pound goes to South-West Belfast Foodbank, to help local families who need it. If you've already given, thank you. If you haven't yet, there's still time. And if you can't give, sharing the page makes just as big a difference.

Thank you again. Let's keep it going.

Supporting

South-West Belfast Foodbank

There are many individuals and families struggling to put food on the table. We don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry. That’s why we provide three days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people who are referred to us in crisis. Food donated by the community, or purchased from cash donations, is sorted, stored and then distributed by volunteers. We receive referrals from community, statutory and other organisations, and we also signpost people on to other partner organisations too. We serve people mainly in the Colin Glen area, Andersonstown, Falls, Ballymurphy, Whiterock, Turf Lodge, Springfield Road, Dunmurry, and Finaghy, about 30% of the population under Belfast City Council. South-West Belfast Foodbank is a ministry of Colin Glen Christian Fellowship.
