New World Family2Family Campaign
How to donate
The New World 2024 Family2Family Foodbank Appeal is all about giving, from one family to another!
This is your chance to support a family facing food insecurity by donating non-perishable food items. Between 8 April – 5 May, you will have the opportunity to fill a bag with products when you’re in-store, and drop it off at the in-store collection point. You can also purchase a pre-filled bag and donate your Flybuys points at the checkout.
You’ll be supporting foodbanks around the country – including ours!
A huge thank you to New World for their generous support helping New Zealanders put food on the table. Read more about the campaign here.
What are foodbank-friendly products?
Our local foodbanks desperately need non-perishable products that are typical household essentials. These household essentials may be anything from canned goods and spreads, tea and coffee, rice and pasta to non-food products like soap, toothpaste, shampoo and sanitary products.
Look out for foodbank-friendly products highlighted in your local New World.
- Tins of soup, baked beans, spaghetti, fruit and vegetables, soup, kidney beans, mixed beans, chickpeas, tomatoes, pasta sauce.
- Things that make a hearty base of a meal like rice, pasta and noodles are good.
- Breakfast cereal is a great staple and things for the pantry like sugar, flour, tea bags and crackers.
- Hygiene basics are important like soap, toothbrushes and toothpaste, toilet paper and period products.
- And it never hurts to pop in a little treat like chocolate or chips to make someone’s day when things are pretty tough.
