A record number of Victorian families have been plunged into food insecurity this year.
Following what has been a difficult year for many, ABC Radio is partnering with Foodbank Victoria to help to support our local community with ABC Victoria Gives.
All funds raised will go directly to Foodbank Victoria to help feed Victorians in need, providing food to more than 500 frontline charities across the state – from Mildura to Mallacoota.
For every $1 dollar they receive, they can provide two meals for someone in need.
- $35 can help fill hampers with pantry essentials, ensuring that Victorian children have enough to eat these holidays.
- $60 can help cover the cost of the above, plus some festive extras that bring joy into children's lives, such as custard.
- $120 can help ensure that whatever challenges the New Year may bring for vulnerable families, struggling to put food on the table won't be one of them.
With you by our side we have a plan. We are determined to work non-stop through this challenging time and give families across Victoria the shared family meal they deserve this festive season.
Please give whatever you can afford today.
