Story
FareShare food makes a huge difference to our organisation as we operate our projects tackling food poverty within the community in a way that seeks to restore hope and dignity to our clients through hospitality, provision and skills development.
Melanie, Vineyard Compassion Social Supermarket
As a charity, it is difficult for us to always offer the services and provide the things we know our client group need and would benefit from as we have limited funds ourselves. We have found receiving food from FareShare NI a great benefit to us as an organisation because we can provide a range of healthy and varied food. We are able to donate food packs to participants who struggle financially and help provide them with free breakfast or lunch options when they are using our services.
As part of the catering academy we teach basic cooking skills and the food from FareShare enables us to have a variety of produce to teach different food preparation skills that can be used during placements and working in a catering environment.
