Every bit makes a difference!

A new UN report shows that New Zealand has much higher rates of food insecurity than comparable countries – and those rates are growing. Food insecurity in New Zealand has increased by more than 6% in the past nine years, with 1 in 5 children living in homes where food runs out sometimes or often.

Windsor Park Baptist Church is proud to be partnering with the Auckland Church Network and the North Shore Food Insecurity Network for a North Shore Winter Food Drive throughout the months of July and August.

The winter months are especially tough for many families, with budgets tighter than ever. Every donation, big or small, helps families across our community through food support.

Thank you for joining us in making a positive difference during this trying season!
