CHOMP Emergency Appeal
Brighton, England, United Kingdom
Aim
CHOMP needs to raise urgent funds to support families currently living in food poverty across Brighton, Hove and Portslade
Please help Chomp provide families with the support they need at the moment!
The CHOMP project works with many families across Brighton, Hove and Portslade, who are on low incomes and are struggling to make ends meet.
Families who usually receive free school dinners, have found themselves in a situation where they are stuck indoors, without the funds to buy the extra food needed, now their kids are home all day. Many of these families are also in isolation and are unable to secure food deliveries from the main supermarkets.
Families are struggling with keeping their children occupied, as they don't have access to basic art materials like felt tips pens, glue sticks, crayons, paper, kids scissors etc.
The CHOMP project is delivering food packs to families that are most in need during this Covid-19 period.
We are also delivering art and craft materials t
o families, to help children be creative and productive whilst they cannot attend school or go to the playground.
In normal circumstances our families attend CHOMP sessions throughout the school holidays in 9 venues across the city.
Sadly our sessions cannot run currently, due to government guidelines and this is having a big impact on our families, as the hot and healthy free lunch and inclusive and engaging activities of a CHOMP session are being missed hugely by both the children and their grown-ups.
Please help by donating to the CHOMP project emergency appeal !
Help CHOMP help families living in poverty, by donating much needed funds so that CHOMP can deliver more food parcels over this period.
Donations will also allow CHOMP to send out basic art and craft parcels to many of the CHOMP families.
Our usual funding does not cover the sort of service we want to provide during this current situation and we are receiving emails and phone calls on a daily basis from isolated families asking for help.
Please help Chomp provide families with the support they need at the moment!
*update 2nd April: Thanks to donations so far, by the end of this week we'll have sent out 60 food boxes to families in need.
Thank-you !
