Feed Gloucester
Covid-19 means low income Gloucester families are already finding life tough.
Whilst Government may cover 80% of some salaries, for many the lost 20% means real hardship. For self employed and others it can be even worse.
Feed Gloucester brings together local charities, schools, community groups and churches, who are working together to feed those in need in Gloucester due to Covid-19. #FeedGloucester
How it works
- you - the lovely general public - donate money to Feed Gloucester
- we buy pre-paid supermarket vouchers
- we distribute them to charities and schools
- they give vouchers to people and families they know are in need
- voucher recipients can then buy the food and supplies they need
We appreciate this is a tough time for everyone, but we can come together and support each other as a Gloucester community, so please give what you can.
PLEASE share this message on your social media and speak to anyone who might donate to #FeedGloucester - we need your help to make people aware of this.
Thank you
