*** UPDATE 11/12/20 *** You've done it! We've added up all the offline and other donations and together we've smashed the £40K target . All donations over our target now won't be match funded - but will go to tackling the ongoing food crisis in Sheffield. ***

Until 31st Mar 2021, we will benefit from match-funding from the Govt via the Love Your Neighbour partnership - every £1 you donate here is matched (up to £40k), so we receive double. All donations go directly to supporting people in Sheffield.

Thank you to everyone who has supported S6 Foodbank in the past, whether through donating food, cash or volunteering. Without your support we would not have been able to continue to support our guests, launch new sites and tackle the ongoing food crisis in Sheffield which is being exacerbated by coronavirus.

Sadly, we are expecting the increased need to continue for the foreseeable future, as more people experience difficulty as a result of coronavirus and its wider consequences. We still firmly believe that nobody in Sheffield should have to face going hungry. That's why we are asking you to continue supporting us throughout 2020 and into 2021.

Prior to the coronavirus crisis our busiest week was in December 2019, where we supported 117 individuals and families across four foodbanks. In one week of April 2020, just one of our seven foodbanks supported 126 individuals and families. This increase in need means if we had to buy all of our food, our weekly food bill would be £8,000, not to mention staffing, transport and equipment.

Sometimes the numbers involved can seem daunting so well make it simple - £27 provides food and basic essentials for a family of three for three days. We are hoping to encourage 1000 people to each raise £40 to reach our £40,000 target, which will be match funded.

Thank you so much for all your support, love and encouragement - we think you are all amazing. Chris and the team at S6 Foodbank.
