Emergency stock fund

Refuweegee was set up in December 2015 to provide a warm welcome to forcibly displaced people arriving in Glasgow. As a result of the amazing response from people in Glasgow and beyond, we have provided over 5000 community-built, personal welcome packs to people all over Glasgow and across Scotland.

Story

As of 1 March 2023, Refuweegee's stock of food and toiletries has been hugely depleted. There's only baked beans left.

We love beans: beans on toast is one of our favourites! But, we need to give people more than beans.

Our emergency food parcels cost £15 per person and contain essentials: rice, pasta, noodles, cereal, long-life milk, tea/coffee, cereal, biscuits, canned veg and canned fish.

Our toiletries bundles cost around £10 and contain shampoo, shower gel, soap, deodorant, toothpaste and toothbrush with sanitary products for women too.

During March, we'd like to build a pot of funds which mean our team can shop around and get the very best deals on food and toiletries.

This means our stock will never get as low as it is today. It means we can buy in bulk so your support can go even further and help even more people.

Refuweegee gives emergency food parcels and toiletries to any recently arrived person in Glasgow. We guarantee you that all support to the emergency stock fund will go towards buying food and toiletries.

Any support you could give would mean so much . . . thank you!
