Celebrity cake maker and businesswoman Jordan Rondel teamed up with the New Zealand Food Network this World Hunger Day to raise awareness for the charity and help Kiwi families in need.
There has been a 165% increase in the number of people receiving food support since Covid-19 hit, according to a survey by the New Zealand Food Network.
Sanitarium is committing to donating 2.4 million breakfasts of Weet-Bix to the New Zealand Food Network in 2023 – an increase of 50%.
Food rescue coordinator New Zealand Food Network has received $440,000 in government funding to install more chillers and freezers in its storage facilities, increasing the capacity to handle surplus and donated food.
Demand for food support has reached an all-time high following the outbreak of Covid-19 Delta variant in August 2021, says the New Zealand Food Network.
NZFN says the opening of the Christchurch operation would enable it to better serve the community.
